The same thing applies. but it is different treatment. What people are saying today is. if it was good enough for one part of the border. it is good enough for the rest of the borders. What we have to understand is. what we do today if we pass this bill is say we are allowing and willing to allow people to come into this country. overstay their visas. and become undocumented individuals in this country. Understand. there are people that cross through all parts of our border. If you vote for this bill. you are saying you are willing to allow people to overstay and become. as many of you term it. "illegal aliens." So understand. do not make any mistake about it. this is not to just conform the law. this is not to try to take care of disruption for commerce and family. this is an attempt to try to withhold the function of the law. the application of the law. for one place but not for others. If it is fair for one place. it should be fair for all the others.
