Therefore. it is my Intention to pursue other remediesto seek to address this alarming discrimination through a series of aggressive approaches. Over the coming few days. I will be developing a working bill of tough Immigration antidiscrimination measures which I believe should be considered by Congress as expeditiously as possible. And. in addition. the Attorney General has designated Assistant Attorney General John Dunne. who heads the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department. to chair a Joint task force on immigrationrelated discrimination. In a hearing I chaired last week in the Judiciary Committee. Mr. Dunne indicated that the task force should present its recommendations to Congress within 120 days. A number of remedial steps can be undertaken immediately through administrative action. and I have shared these with the Attorney Generals task force. These include increased public education. establishing field offices for the Office of Special Counsel for ImmigrationRelated Unfair Employment Practices. reducing the confusing plethora of documents with which employers must contend. and involving the Department of Labor much more heavily in the employer education and enforcement process. In addition. I believe we must address the scope of the discrimination coverage. bringing it more in line with practices under other civil rights laws.
