In 1991 it was under the old law. it was less. The new law. which went Into effect in 1992. the average was 800.000. That is barely over 3 million for those 4 years. It is substantially less. I just wanted to clarify the Record. That includes. Mr. Chairman. refugees as well as all the other legal immigration categories. What it does not include are about 50.000 legalization categories. which are people already in this country. I Just wanted to indicate that the Department of State. which has the most accurate records on legal admissions. indicates the figure is significantly less than 1 million a year.
