The reason these other two things are important is because a lot of my constituents have said: Why should we believe that a new law is going to be enforced when the existing law isnt enforced? That is a very good question. Presidents. both this administration and the previous administration. and Congresses have not done an adequate job of enforcing the law. But it is also true that we have two laws that are not very enforceable. We know that 40 percent of the people who are here illegally have overstayed visas. They didnt cross the border illegally. It is very hard to enforce the visa overstay laws because they are not adequate. We dont have adequate resources. either. Secondly. the employee verification system in place today is a joke.
