I also want to address a couple of comments made by the junior Senator from Arizona on the floor concerning the history of this bill and the process that led to this day. This last Sunday I was on a talk show. "Face The Nation." with Chairman JAMES SENSENBRENNER of Wisconsin. the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. He is the author of the House immigration bill which passed in December. That bill includes very serious criminal penalties for those who are living in the United States undocumented. who may number as many as 11 or 12 million people. It also includes very serious criminal penalties for those who would help them reside in the United States if they are undocumented. The charge under the Sensenbrenner bill Is aggravated felony. It is the same charge leveled at someone accused of being a rapist.
