There was one particular point that we were concerned with. That was very graphically demonstrated last night. I now think we have positive legislation. not that those of us who have and are sensitive to immigration and what it can do and not do. but the fact is that those who have worked in good faith and in good conscience have now given us something that we can support. I now ask them in the kindness that they have shown us. to continue working with us. and that the enforcement of this legislation be in the spirit in which we have passed it and that we continue working in that endeavor so that the enforcers have the sensitivity and the humanity necessary to see that immigration law is not a vindictive law. is not a law that prejudices anyone. but rather have an orderly ingression of people into our country.
