Speaker. I thank the gentleman from Iowa . and I thank the gentleman from Arizona for their comments here tonight. I certainly learned a lot from both gentlemen and appreciated what they had to say. particularly on the immigration issue. I want to talk a little bit before talking about illegal immigration about something that occurred just the other day in the Rayburn Building. We had a meeting of the Immigration Reform Caucus. and both the gentleman from Arizona and the gentleman from Iowa are members of that and it is chaired by the gentleman from Colorado . who has done yeomans work on behalf of that group. We were anticipating hearing from someone from the U.S. Citizen and Immigration Services. Now. as you know. the Department of Homeland Security is the secretarial agency. and underneath that agency is the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. And they are charged with doing a number of different programs. one program of which is the FAST program. And that is involving temporary adjudicators that have been hired to make citizenship and permanent residency decisions.
