Just briefly. in response to my distinguished colleague from Wyoming. again. and I have said this before. I have great respect for what he has been doing. He has been working in this area where. candidly. there are no votes for him in Wyoming for all his work on this immigration issue. It is a service to the country that he is performing. and he has done an exceptional job. I disagree with his conclusions. First of all. when he separates the legal and illegal. that this bill deals only with the illegal. the reality is that it also deals with legal immigration. The Hong Kong quota. for example. is dealt with in this legislation. That is legal immigration. And when he talks about all the other problems that we have in the exclusion areamental defects. sexual preference. alcoholism. drug use. moral turpitude. and so forthit is complicated and I do not want to at this point complicate this bill. but the reality is precisely as he has said. just about everyone who applies for that waiver eventually gets it anyway and all we cause ourselves is needless embarrassment. and the delay is significant. I remember a group of Japanese in 1978 who were opposed to nuclear weapons.
