Mr. President. I rise to talk about the Bill Lann Lee nomination as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights. He is a good man. a lawyer of skill and experience. He is the son of an immigrant who has worked hard and done very well professionally and financially. However. his nomination is in the Senate Judiciary Committee. Many of his positions are outside the mainstream of current legal thought. and I believe we need to reject that nomination. Regretfully. I intend to vote no when it comes up before the Judiciary Committee. There has been some discussion and comments made that there have been scurrilous attacks against him.
