Anthony Lewis has written on this subject for todays New York Times. Representative BARNEY FRANK has asked the Congressional Research Service to analyze this issue. It concluded: In sum. the categorical language of Section 901. its relation to other provisions regulating immigration. and its legislative history all appear to oppose the position that "mandatory waivers" are necessary. A New York Times editorial stated that the nowuseless waiver system "undermines the spirit of the new law * *." I believe that this understates the case. I believe that maintaining the lookout list and insisting on waiversalbeit mandatory waiversis flagrantly inconsistent with the clear congressional intent.
