We will do the job and we will support the laws that exist. and we will make better laws on the books. Now the Senate has another plan. The Senate sees all those things that I listed in our evidence that we were looking at as to what is the crisis in immigration. The Senate is sitting there saying. We have to address all of them. In fact. they seem to be more interested in those things that our evidence shows are not bleeding than they seem to be interested in where the bleeding is at the border. Now. they have some things in what I would like to call the ReidKennedy bill. and I will explain that in a minute. but the bill that came out of the Senate. What they have done. they have some border enforcement provisions. I dont want to deny that. But they spend a lot of time trying to deal with what are we going to do with these people that are here. that are already here illegally. and what are we going to do about a work program. So they come up with a convoluted plan that. I am going to title part of this plan as the "illegal document industries job security plan." all right. because one of the things we know. and I know that the Speaker knows this from his past experience. and others know. that most of the people. in fact. 2. Pt. 10 14081 all of the people who are illegal aliens working in the United States. our employers 90 percent of the time are making sure that they have some documentation to show at least on their books that that person is legally in the country. And they are taking this documentation and putting it into files. But there is a real. solid industry along the borders of the United States producing false documents. false Social Security cards. false drivers licenses. false pay stubs. pretty much anything you want.
