Let me simply suggest. and I will have to speak later in greater detail. that to have toughsounding provisions in a bill that are unconstitutional and. therefore. unenforceable gives us the illusion of being tough. but not the reality of doing anything about the problem. and that is one of the problems of the bill that we solve in the ConyersNadlerBerman substitute. Second. we will talk later about some of the real civil liberties problems. We cannot have a procedure for deporting aliens who are allegedly terrorists where they have no opportunity to crossexamine their accusers. no opportunity to see the evidence against them. no opportunity even to know the specific charges. and that is possible under this bill. and that provision is rewritten to provide basic due process in the substitute that we will be talking about later.
