I will not support it. Specifically. I cannot in good conscience support any provisions that would deny basic human services. such as education and health care. to children. Likewise. I cannot support any conference report that places new onerous restrictions on legal immigration. I do not believe this would be in the interest of the Nations economy or culture. By sticking close to the Senate mark. a conference committee on illegal immigration reform can show the American people that Congress is occasionally capable of putting aside fundamental differences and crafting consensus legislation that serves the public interest. I sincerely hope this happens.
