Every Member of this House believes. I think. that a mistake was made by the sheriff in San Francisco in releasing this individual who had been convicted of numerous felonies. We also believe. if we had passed a comprehensive immigration reform bill similar to the one the Senate passed in the last Congress. that this problem itself would not be solvedbecause we believe that the sheriff should not have released this individual irrespective of the status of immigration reformbut we believe this would go a long way towards enhancing the ability of both law enforcement and of communities to deal with the immigration issue as well as giving confidence to people of their status. Does the gentleman believe that there is any possibility of a comprehensive immigration bill being considered in the next work period? I yield to my friend.
