But let me be clear, Mr. Chairman, in the final analysis my legislation is about protecting the rule of law here in the United States.
The result of that policy, which I often refer to as unilateral concessions to the dictatorship, have been well documented.
I would strongly urge the Committee to maintain the focus on the purpose of my legislation to ensure that the spirit and letter of U.S. immigration law is enforced.
In sum, Mr. Chairman, it is imperative that Congress do everything in its power to enforce U.S. immigration law.
