Then he might substitute this newly negotiated bill that hasnt been written yetnobody has seen a word of itand then we will vote. That will make everybody happy. Let me say this. with all sincerity: The American people know immigration is a big issue. It is an important issue. it really is. It says a lot about the nature of this country. Are we going to be a countryj that the world knows has laws that are never enforced. that our immigration policies make a mockery of the law. as they do today? Will we continue to see people all over the world get the idea in their heads--correct today. basicallythat if they can just get into America. sooner or later we will make them citizens and give them everything. even if they came illegally? Is that the kind of message we want to sendl?
