We must also ensure those aliens who have committed acts or who engage in conduct in association with a terrorist organization. or perhaps have even committed terrorist acts themselves. are rendered permanently ineligible for any legal status and are barred from our country. Finallyand this is not a technical fix. this. I believe. is a conscious decision on the part of the bill drafters to omit this category of individualsmy amendment would close the loophole in this hill that allows legalization of those illegal aliens who have already had their day in court and violated courtordered deportations. These are known as absconders and. in fact. have committed a felony. if found guilty of their failure to deport once ordered deported. or if they have been deported and simply reentered the country. Unlike the first half of my amendment. this is not a technical correction. In other words. the decision to legalize this population of illegal aliens was no drafting oversight.
