Mr. Speaker. if my colleagues were concerned last year when we passed the immigration bill about the amnesty portion of that bill. and it only carried by six votes. bear in mind this continuing resolution violates completely the amnesty provisions delicately worked out last year. This continuing resolution prevents the United States from deporting any immediate member of the family of a person who is eligible for amnesty under last years bill. My colleague from Kentucky . the chairman of the Subcommittee on Immigration. Refugees. and International Law of the Committee on the Judiciary was denied by the Rules Committee a chance to change that provision in this rule. I urge my colleagues to defeat this rule. Let the Rules Committee go back and clean up these onerous attachments in this bill.
