Mr. President. I just wish to praise the senior Senator from Illinois. He has been consistent on this issue since he came here. He was one of the architects of a major overhaul of our immigration system a year and a half ago. which passed by a twothirds majority. by Republicans and Democrats alike. We have gone such a long way toward solving this problem. The Republican leadership in the Houseeven though the votes were there to pass it in the Houserefused to bring it up. I am proud to align myself as a follower of the leadership of the Senator from Illinois.
