Mr. President. I am pleased to offer this amendment along with my colleague Senator THURMOND. Under this amendment. the Immigration and Naturalization Service would be given the authority to deport nonU.S. citizens convicted of felony drunk driving. Specifically. this amendment applies to aliens convicted of causing serious bodily injury or death while operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The need for this amendment was brought to my attention by Mothers Against Drunk Driving. MADD told me about a case in Florida where a resident alien was convicted of drunk driving after causing a crash in which an innocent 73yearold woman received a crushed pelvis. a punctured lung. broken ribs and serious stomach wounds.
