Why is it we are debating that existing laws should be enforced? We are ignoring existing laws. And the Gregg amendment did not require congressi onal approval. A recent Rasmussen report found twothirds of Americans believe it does not make sense to debate new immigration law until we can first enforce and control our border and enforce existing laws. The bill is flawed because it allows those here illegally to adjust to legal status before any of the new or old enforcement provisions are made. It requires those who are here illegally become legal before we have control of the border.
