Mr. Speaker. I would just add to my friend. the gentleman from Michigan . he asked why have we not had any hearings. and I think that is an appropriate point. I would suggest to him that this arose very quickly because very quickly the Immigration and Naturalization Service came to us in my office and said. "By the way you will be the lucky recipient of a test program." We felt that that had not had hearings. That indeed had not been an issue discussed. and I would suggest to the gentleman that the entire point behind delaying the implementation of this bill for years was to provide the gentleman and the gentleman from Texas and others who have a direct and very understandable interest in this with the opportunity to have the hearings. and therefore I believe we should support this for the very reasons he stated.
