I thank the gentleman from Michigan for his motion. Mr. Speaker. as the gentleman from Michigan has already said. the provisions that are in the legislation on the House side. section 416 and 417. are two provisions that relate to illegal immigration. The first of those provisions is one which states that no funds in this act can be used to provide homeownership assistance for illegal immigrants. The second. section 417. says that no funds may be used to employ workers who are illegal immigrants. The first of these sections applies to the Department of Housing and Urban Development. the second one applies to the Department of Transportation and relates to people who might otherwise be employed in construction under the Department of Transportation. As the gentleman from Michigan has pointed out. those were adopted unanimously by voice vote here in the House during the passage of this legislation.
