I thank my colleague from Rhode Island. Mr. President. I am very glad to be a cosponsor of this amendment. We in Rhode Island are particularly conscious of the importance of the unification and reunification of immigrant families. From a statistical viewpoint I believe I am correct in saying that our State has the highest percentage of foreignborn people. We speak a great deal about the importance of family unification. family life. family values. All of these thoughts would be better served by the passage of this legislation because. without it. there will be many families forced to either split or disobey the law.
