Senate should understand that this problem Is much like trying to drink water out of a fire hydrant. Go down to San Ysidro. CA. down there by San Diego where 46 million automobiles and 9 million pedestrians were stuck and inspected by the Immigration and Naturalization Service last year. We are totally understaffed for the problems of the illegal immigrants coming Into the Nation and making their demands upon State and Federal spending. So it is not a casual commendation that I give to the leadership of the Senator from Wyoming because I worked with him on the SimpsonMazzoli bill years back. He has been in the trenches working for years trying to bring the National Government ahead and on to the problem. so that it would not Increase into this emergency. more or less. at this particular time.
