About this Item

iii, [1], 102 pages. Illustrations. In the Chairman's remarks he stated: "The House of Representatives has already passed legislation aimed at halting the flow of illegal aliens across the border and, as we know, the Senate just last week came close to passing its own immigration reform bill. The Senate's failure demonstrates the tremendous polarization on this issue. The great majority of American people feel strongly that the Federal Government is failing in its responsibilities to defend our borders and the growing anger and frustration is palpable. On the other hand, immigrants--many undoubtedly here illegally--are taking to the streets in large numbers, waving the flags of foreign nations and demanding that the Government essentially continue to be passive. This debate raises questions which are difficult, but which we must fearlessly confront. Who are we as a people? Is it fair for taxpayers and citizens in general, for us to massively subsidize millions of illegal immigrants in our midst? Should we continue to shrug our shoulders and discourage any talk of the criminal elements among these illegal immigrants, lest we be accused of being bigots? Or should we courageously and responsibly confront these problems head-on?
