I yield myself I minute. Mr. President. this is a very simple piece of legislation. All we are doing is asking State and local governments to cooperate with the immigration people in determining who are illegal aliens. We are not asking them to do any special investigation. All we are asking is that they disclose what information they have available. No one is at risk because. first of all. the legislation does not take effect for 6 months. and all it would take. in the case of Chicago. for example. is the stroke of a pen insofar as the mayor is concerned in eliminating the legislation now on the books.
