It is constitutional to do so. It is appropriate to do so. And the distinguished Senator from Alabama is acting very appropriately In bringing this amendment to the floor. It is well established that illegal aliens can be treated differently from other aliens. According to the case of Federation of American Immigration Reform v. Klutznik. 486 F. Supp. 564. 578 (D.D.C. 1980). illegal aliens were not a component of the population at the time that the Constitution was adopted. They simply were not provided for. Congress can now make any rationally based provision for them that Congress decides to do.
