Mr. President. if I might. we are proud of the fact that New Jersey is on the alert for those who would illegally apply for drivers licenses or benefit programs. We are all aware of the fact that our generosity and our openness has been abused significantly. and while we welcome immigrants. we welcome them here through a process. and we just cannot accept the notion of illegality as being acceptable. Therefore. again. I salute the Senator from Nevada for his interest in this subject. We do have a potential jurisdictional problem. With his gracious willingness to accept the fact that this is now on the record. that this is a first step. we will be able to go ahead and accept it.
