I want to congratulate the chairman of the Immigration Subcommittee. Senator ABRAHAM. for focusing on this issue and am pleased to join him and my other colleagues in putting forth this legislation which is aimed at correcting deficiencies that exist in the current law. Let me say I dont intend to repeat all of the arguments put forth by my colleagues. But I do want to point out. very clearly. there are a number of my colleagues who are concerned about the impact of implementation of this legislation. We were given such assurances as it related to its enforcementthat there was no intent to impose various requirements that would actually stop people from Canada who were coming in on a daily basis--millions of people. millions.
