To turn this into some act of oppression makes no sense whatsoever. and. as a matter of fact. the opposite is the case. If we do not allow ourselves to use this simple. straightforward system of requiring verification when one applies. we will be inviting a great deal more in the way of repression. Unless my colleagues are prepared to say that all the laws on the books about illegal immigration can be flattened at will because. without this kind of verification. that is what happens. then my colleagues are to vote against this amendment and vote later for an amendment that will begin to make this a requirement.
