Madam President. I am pleased to introduce. for myself and Senator HOLLINGS. the Illegal Immigration Enforcement Act of 1995. This is a bill to improve the Federal Governments ability to deter illegal immigration by enhancing enforcement of existing laws that prohibit employment of illegal aliens and bar overstays by legally admitted visitors. Madam President. I have been watching the unfolding immigration debate with real concern. As I followed Californias proposition 187 campaign. I realized the arguments over illegal immigration are occurring in a vacuum. We are trying to address the impact of immigration without understanding how it relates to the deeper transformations that are shaping our society. We find ourselves susceptible to the demagogic quick fix. and risk undermining the diversity that underlies our strength as an American people. Peter Drucker once said: Every few hundred years throughout Western history. a sharp transformation has occurred.
