I commend him for that. I commend all members of the committee for that. What we have done is. by working that way. we have provided a realistic and reasonable system for immigration. The bill protects Americas borders. it strengthens enforcement. and most important. it remains true to the best of American values. The committee bill wisely dropped controversial provisions which would have exposed those who provide humanitarian relief or medical care or shelter or counseling or other basic services to undocumented aliens. Under the earlier bill. they would have faced possible prosecution under felony aliensmuggling provisions of the criminal lawa reminder that in a nation such as ours. with such a great heart and soul as a nation. we also have a moral and humanitarian responsibility to people. We should not make felons of those who carry out the responsibility of feeding the hungry. clothing the naked. and sheltering those who need shelter.
