That is what the great majority of the people want. That is what we are trying to do. If we follow the Cornyn amendment. people come in good faith. someone flyspecs that particular application and says: No. it is a question whether this is criminal intentboom. you are gone. you are deported. We will have a very difficult time. We have crafted this legislation so those who are going to lie on that application. those who are involved in criminal activity are subject to deportationno Ifs. ands or buts. But we also understand in this complicated world there will be innocent mistakes made. and we do not want to subject those people to deportation. That is not what this is about. It seems to me honest people who submit a goodfaith application to earn legalization should not be citing their own deportation orders. otherwise. why should anyone apply? That effectively is what the Cornyn amendment does. It effectively undermines the whole purpose and scope and thrust of the legislation.
