Effectively. what the Simpson amendment does. by his own description: We will say. OK. we will permit citizens to bring their spouses and minor children and parents in here but virtually no one else. at least in the first year. because the other groups now. the adult children. which are 23.000 that are coming in here. and the brothers and sisters. which are 65.000 that are coming in here. and the children and wives of the permanent resident aliens that are coming in here. SIMPSON will say all of those together will get 7.000 visas. Effectively we are closing the door on those members of the family. That is the principal reason I oppose it. No. 1. it is dealing with legal immigration and not illegal. If we are interested in legal. we have a variety of different additional Issues. This is the heart of the legal immigration. the numbers of families. It is the heart of the whole program. Always has been.
