Reclaiming my time. and I gave the gentleman an opportunity to participate. my greatgrandparents were immigrants as well. They came in the legal way. I think it is time to get back to an immigration policy that allows people to come to America under the legal parameters. and lot me say one last thing: We are not helping all of these people in the other countries by taking a small number of them into America and further eroding our economy. We would be better off to teach them how to fish rather than coming in here and giving them a loaf of broad. So. in answer to the gentlemans question. I dont think your question applies to this particular issue. I say we dont have enough Border Patrol agents for people who are jumping the fence illegally. and thats what this amendment deals with. and I support it.
