The 1986 bill wrote a very bad provision for employment verification. It doesnt work. So for those who say. "Well. lets enforce the law. and then there will be the attrition of illegal immigrants and we will get back to a good situation." the answer is. of course. if you do not have a good law to enforce. you cannot work that strategy. The law has to be changed. It is very clear that in order to change the law so it can be enforceableboth with respect to visa overstayers and at places of employmentwe are going to have to have a group of people get together. Democrats and Republicans. willing to support some things that each other wants in order to pass such a law. That is the genesis of the bill that is before us.
