The quid pro quo alleged by the article simply has not occurred. While there have been serious discussions with the administration since 1993. about Guams quest for commonwealth. to date there has been no specific policy shift. What has changed is the context in which our desires for the local control of immigration have been portrayed. This distortion has been suggested by members of the Federal bureaucracy whom we from Guam are very familiar with because we have negotiated rather unsuccessfully with them over the years. It is also important to note that. when we look at it in terms of from Guam. we are wondering how we are portrayed in the national media.
