Eighty percent of this population has an educational level roughly equivalent to a fifth grade education. Most do not speak English and are unable to perform basic skills. How are these people to fulfill the minimum requirement for legalization without education services? How can we realistically expect these individuals to become part of this countrys economic mainstream? Mr. President. I will urge the conferees of this appropriations bill to reject these raids on SLIAG. These raids are nothing short of cruel. We have held out false promise to millions of undocumented workers. and now we have undermined their opportunity to legalize their status in this country.
