I am still troubled by the discrimination that could result from employer sanctions. I am also not convinced that any foreign agricultural workers should be imported to pick our crops. I am certain. however. that if the rule is not adopted. the opportunity for approving acceptable legislation will be lost. If the House does not adopt this rule. the delicate balance that has been crafted will be destroyed and immigration reform will once again be left for another day. I urge my colleagues to adopt the rule and provide the House an opportunity to vote for a fair and meaningful immigration bill.
