Mr. President. I thank the Senator from Hawaii for offering this amendment. He offered this amendment in the last immigration bill. We accepted it at that time. 1 am confident that will be the case on this time. but given the hour of the evening. we are unable to get this cleared. Basically. as he has expressed so well. he is talking about the immediate family members of those who served with American forces in World War 11. Under the broad scope of the underlying legislation. they would be included to be able to come to the United States. Under the bill. it would take an 8year period.
