This Day in the History of Legislative Legerdemain
On this day in 1996, the Senate passed, 97-to-3, an immigration bill to tighten border controls, make it tougher for illegal aliens to get U.S. jobs and curtail legal immigrants' access to social services. I don't want to judge the legislation prematurely, but it's beginning to look like it's possible that we may not have rigorously enforced this law.
