We have heard a great deal. as we should. about the problems we are facing in our trade deficit and what that has meant in terms of losing jobs in the United States. But here we are taking Jobs from Americans. Finally. make no mistake about it: The Wilson amendment. if it is accepted. will sound the death knell for any immigration reform because of the position which has been taken by the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and one. quite frankly. that I find makes a good deal of sense. is that this will really make a sham of this whole piece of legislation. On the one hand. we are supposedly enacting employers sanctions. to deal with the problems of undocumented aliens coming into the United States and taking American jobs. perhaps being exploited. and working for inadequate wages. We are trying to say that that is what this entire legislation is about. and. on the other hand. we say that we are going to take 350.000 guest workers in here also to take American jobs. Anybody who can tie together the logic of those two positions will have an extraordinary sense of logic.
