There is no national identity card and no big brother database in this legislation. Mr. Speaker. as with all things that are borne of compromise. this legislation is not without disappointments. In my State of Florida. we know that undocumented immigrants cost Florida taxpayers millions of dollars every year in education costs. The Governors office estimated the cost for 1 year to have been S180 million. Nationwide for 1 year the estimate was more than $4.2 billion. We simply cannot afford to educate all of the worlds children while extending a magnet that fuels illegal entry into our country. Although I am disappointed its not in this bill.
