That is what the amendment before the House which I offered today does. What it says simply is this: We are going to maintain the family unity provisions. We are going to allow 125.000 additional visas for the spouses and children of American residents. we are not going to allow the deportation of spouses and children legalized in 1986. but not going to increase by 530.000 a year the number of visas for legal immigration into the country. I do not believe the American people would support this in a minute. and I am astonished to see this Congress come forward and advocate it in a time when we cannot even pay our bills. we cannot educate our children. we cannot fight crime. We have enormous responsibility to deal with in our country today.
