I hope it will not be accepted. I believe diversity is one of our greatest sources of strength. one of the truly unique things about this country. In earlier times. as I mentioned. we discriminated against major areas in the world. In 1965 we reformed our immigration laws to get rid of those discriminatory quotas. In 1990 we acted again to ensure greater equality of Immigration by creating the diversity visa program. The Gregg amendment would be a major step backward. and I urge my colleagues to reject it. Mr. President. how much time do I have? I believe the Senator from Illinois is on his way.
