They are not going to be kicked out under the present laws we have. We cannot even begin to get to them If we wanted to. We do not have the personnel to do it. but if they are in fear of persecution. and there are some of them claiming that. there is a process to go through that is orderly in law today that would allow our Justice Department and its Immigration Service to grant them the kind of extended stay here that is something that we would all want to see happen. and that is called political asylum. That is a process again that is in current law. The Moakley provisions that my amendment would strike are not only unnecessary. but again that are bad policy.
