I want to thank the gentleman from Iowa for yielding me this time. and I want to compliment the gentleman from Iowa for the compromise that was reached in conference that will encourage the appointment of a new Board for the Legal Services Corporation. which is so desperately needed. If you believe in equal access to our legal system. then you must oppose the Stenholm amendment. Let me just give you one example. My friend. the gentlewoman from Maryland. mentioned the fact that we want Legal Services attorneys to have the same rights as any other lawyer. yet in this amendment we are imposing different requirements on the Legal Services attorneys and the private attorney in migrant worker cases. That is just not fair. That is not equal access to our Judicial system.
