And I will be candid and frank with you. it falls most heavily on four States. It falls heavily on Texas. it falls heavily on Florida. it falls heavily on New York. and it falls heavily on California. And that is because that is where the largest percentages of these legal immigrants are. Now. as I mentioned earlier in the earlier discussion. I believe we should tighten the sponsorship requirements. I believe we should see that. they are secure. even verify what they say. And I intend to introduce legislation that would provide that sponsors of immigrants must provide health insurance for those immigrants. But here we are with a situation that exists really creating a massive unfunded mandate. particularly in the area of legal immigration. This amendment is supported by the National Governors Association. the National Conference of State Legislatures. the National Association of Counties. the National League of Cities. the United States Catholic Conference. the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights.
