Mr. Chairman. I thank the gentleman for yielding this time to me. Mr. Chairman. I agree with the gentleman from Texas that you do not have to start out with criminal penalties. Ruin the bill? Let us all get reasonable for a minute. Do you mean to tell me that after this legislation passes. we will never revisit immigration reform again? Of course we will. And if we determine that it is really necessary to have criminal sanctions put into the bill. we can do it. But let us not start putting small business men and women in jail because they have made an error.
