So nobody on the Senate floor is standing up and saying: What about the tradeoff here of an American family? We hear a lot about other families. One of my colleagues just described economic immigrants. Man. the world is full of them. If the world has onehalf of its population making less than $2 a day. are there economic immigrants willing to come from many corners of this globe to this country? The answer is. of course. But we have immigration laws and quotas because if we were flooded with tens and tens of millions of people searching for opportunities in our country. we would diminish opportunities for Americans who live here and work here and built this country. So that is why we have immigration quotas. One final point. if I might. on this issue of employer sanctions. That is a matter of will.
