Our country is being invaded. and the Senate legislation will accelerate this invasion. And it is not just Mexican Americans who are crossing the border. nor South Americans and others who are crossing the border from Mexico. We also. of course. have a huge problem with illegal immigration of people who are coming into our country and overstaying their visas. Theyre just as much a part of the illegal immigration problem as those people crossing our Canadian and our Mexican border. Yet this bill does nothing. absolutely nothing. to strengthen the system to try to reform the U.S. visa system. They call it the U.S. visit exit system which. right now. when someone comes into our country with a visa. we dont know if they have left. It was mandated back in 1996 that that system would be fixed and that we would track visitors to our country so we would know if they had come and if theyd gone home. and so then we would know at least who is here illegally. That hasnt even been fixed by this legislation. Of course. not knowing who is left or who stays in the United States. it makes it impossible for us to track who has overstayed their visa. May I remind you that somewhere between a third and half of our illegal alien population. thats between 4 and 5 million people. are people who are here who have overstayed their visas. So I think its misportrayed when we only look to our southern border. and too many people. too many people talk about this as something to do with Mexico. Well. it has something to do with Mexico. because a large number of illegals are from Mexico. but this problem is way beyond that. and there are many. many other illegals in this country. from Asia and elsewhere. that need to be brought to justice and to be returned to their country.
