President. one of the arguments that will be raised is that we are treating this group differently than we are a legal alien. That is true. But the point. Mr. President. is we treated this entire group differently. That is why we did the amnesty legislation. We treated those who came illegally differently than those who have been waiting patiently for their entrance visas from foreign countries for many years. So. yes. there was a difference in treatment. But we concluded it was the right thing to do and this is a correction. a minor correction. to that entire procedure that we followed when we passed that legislation.
