Speech #1010044322

Mr. President. I intend to vote against the passage of S. 358. the Immigration Act of 1989. When the Senate began consideration of this legislation. the Senate Committee on the Judiciary recommended to the Senate a consensus bill that reflected reforms for the admittance of immigrants into our Nation. Our colleagues. the Chairman of the Judiciary Committee. Mr. KENNEDY. the ranking member. Mi. SIMPSON. and the Senator from Illinois. Mr. SIMON. have worked diligently to craft a piece of legislation that reflects the differing views of many of the members. I commend. and appreciate their hard work. I intended to vote for this legislation. but the bill in its final form does not reflect the legislation as reported to the full Senate.
