Excerpt from Immigration-Related Issues in the North American Free Trade Agreement: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on International Law, Immigration, and Refugees of the Committee on the Judiciary, House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, First Session, November 3, 1993, Serial No. 18Let me indicate to our first panel and the other witnesses who may be in the room, we appreciate your cooperation and we apolo gize for having originally designated 10 o'clock this morning, but we had a caucus which interrupted the opportunity to go forward at that point. So we thank you for your patience.I would like to make an opening statement. Today we are hold ing an oversight hearing on the immigration-related issues arising from the North American Free Trade Agreement or the nafta. We will be looking at, among other things, four areas of concern to this subcommittee and to its Chair.First, the probable impact of the nafta on illegal immigration from Mexico to the United States. Second, the border management and control, particularly in the short term during which period all experts seem to agree that illegal immigration will increase or, at the very least, the pressures to illegally enter will increase putting concomitant pressures on our border.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
