Warren Leiden. Nelson Merced. and Bruce Morrison deserve our highest praise. This diverse and bipartisan Commission. and its excellent and courteous staff. has presented a series of unanimous. repeatunanimous--recommendations to the Congress on dealing with unlawful immigration. That is no mean task. Can any of my colleagues imagine obtaining a unanimous series of recommendations on an issue as controversial as immigration out of a bipartisan Commission made up of Members of this body? Many of the Commissions recommendations were already part of the comprehensive reform bill which I introduced earlier in this Congress. I will introduce. early in the next Congress. a comprehensive immigration reform bill following closely the recommendations contained in this most excellent report. Some of the naysayers have criticized the proposed worker verification program as being too expensive. We heard the same old plaint from the critics in the early eighties when we explored the use of the Social Security number card as constituting a possible worker authorization document.
