Reid. This matter came to me at the last minute. and I am advised that Mr. Reid will be deported forthwith unless some action is taken to forestall it. My preference would be to have a short delay of deportation. so that I might meet with Mr. Reid and study the entire matter more closely. The INS. however. as noted above. has refused the request for such a delay. As a matter of basic fairness to Mr. Reid and his family. I believe that there should be a review of the determination made by the Immigration and Naturalization Service. As the record shows. I have acted in support of many citizens to stay deportation until there has been an opportunity for a fuller study of individual cases. I am especially concerned that the deportation of a person. such as Mr. Reid. will work such a drastic hardship on his family. I am sending the Immigration and Naturalization Service a copy of this statement and bill with the request that any report. which they may make. should be expedited so that a prompt determination may be made as to whether this bill should be pursued for ultimate passage.* By Mr. WALLOP (for himself.
