Speech #1090133652

Anything that is stated. you virtually have to accept. That is ridiculous. and we would remove that directive from the bill. And No. 5. the amendment would clarify that the alien has the burden of proving his or her employment history by "a preponderance of the evidence." It is very reasonable. and. in fact. there is no other workable way to do it. to put the burden of proof on the illegal alien to prove the amount of time he has been in the country. Any lesser burden of proof. any other way of going about it will be a glaring loophole and an open invitation for fraud. Let me underscore the general thrust of my amendment.
