Mr. President. tomorrow marks the first anniversary of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986. It bears the name of the former chairman of the Immigration and Refugee Subcommittee. Senator AL SImPsoN. who guided that extremely important measure through the U.S. Senate and was instrumental in assuring that It won the support of the administration and became law. It was spearheaded in the House of Representatives by Representative RODINO. the chairman of the Judiciary Committee. and by Representative MAZZOLI. who worked long and hard on that measure as well. I expressed my views on that legislation on the floor of the U.S.
