This is one of the most complex pieces of legislation that has come before the Senate. There have been months and months of negotiations. I was part of those negotiations. at least on the Republican side. trying to put a bill together with some good. solid principles that would help fix our immigration problem because I think most people agree that the immigration system in this country is broken. We now find ourselves deep into this processbut certainly not all the way through the processbecause of the complexity of the issues we are dealing with. Yesterday afternoon a bipartisan group of folks sat down to discuss several of the issues. The more you talk about this bill. the more you realize that when you fix one problem. it creates another problem or problems. For example. have you fixed the problems with the Z visa program and the problems with the temporary worker program? Have you fixed the problems related to when folks are going to leave the country? Especially with the temporary worker program. is there going to be a strong and reliable exit visa system in place so you know that when temporary workers visas expire they are actually going to exit? That is easy to do. as we found out yesterdlay. in airports. It is much more difficult to do when it comes to land based exits.
