And the proposal on the floor says that you have to have come into the country before January 7. 2004. This is an important concept when considering amnesty because there are always reports of rushing to the border by those working along the border as aliens seeking to make their way here to take advantage of the amnesty. I ask unanimous consent to have printed in the RECORD an article in the Washington Times entitled "Illegals Acted on Rumors of Amnesty." Part of this article says: Nearly 35 percent of the illegal aliens captured trying to enter the United States in the 19 days after President Bush proposed a stillpending guestworker program say they were trying to take advantage of what they saw as an amnesty. I ask unanimous consent that the article be printed in the RECORD at the end of my remarks.
