      THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION CONTROL AND ENFORCEMENT ACT OF 1995

 Mrs. FEINSTEIN. Mr. President, yesterday I introduced and 
spoke on the Illegal Immigration Control and Enforcement Act of 1995.
  As I indicated then, I look forward to working with all of my 
colleagues on the Immigration Subcommittee, Judiciary Committee and in 
the full Senate to craft comprehensive legislation in this session of 
Congress to stop illegal immigration. I believe that the widest 
possible dissemination of my bill, and of all other responsible 
proposals, will help us meet that goal.
  I ask that the text of my legislation, S. 580, be printed in today's 
Record.
  The bill follows:

                                 S. 580

     proportion to the level of illegal intrusion measured in each 
     sector during the preceding fiscal year and reasonably 
     anticipated in the next fiscal year, and shall be actively

     and vehicles attempting to lawfully enter the United States 
     in accordance with existing policies and procedures of the 
     Immigration and Naturalization Service, the United States 
     Customs Service, and the Drug Enforcement Agency.
       (2) Such improvements to the infrastructure of the land 
     border of the United States shall be substantially completed 
     and fully funded in those portions of the United States where 
     the Attorney General, in consultation with the Committees on 
     the Judiciary of the House of Representatives and the Senate,

     and 1997, the number of full-time land border inspectors 
     assigned to active duty by the Immigration and Naturalization 
     Service and the United States Customs Service to a level

     of all border crossing lanes now in use, under construction, 
     or whose construction has been authorized by Congress.

     alien demonstrates that--
       ``(1) the alien has exhausted any administrative remedies 
     that may have been available to seek relief against such 
     order;
       ``(2) the deportation proceedings at which the order was

     absence of a stipulation, the United States District Court or 
     the United States Magistrate Court, may order deportation as 
     a condition of probation, if, after notice and hearing 
     pursuant to section 242A(c) of the Immigration and 
     Nationality Act, the Attorney General demonstrates by clear 
     and convincing evidence that the alien is deportable.''.

     individual pursuant to parole procedures of that country.
       (b) Priority.--In carrying out subsection (a), the 
     Secretary of State should give priority to concluding an

     represents a significant percentage of all such individuals 
     in the United States.

     date of enactment of this Act, no new treaty providing for

     facilities to a foreign incarceration facility should permit

     States.

     subsection (a) who has been deported or otherwise expelled 
     from the United States or is otherwise unable to testify may 
     be admitted into evidence in an action brought for that

     and the deposition otherwise complies with the Federal Rules 
     of Evidence.''.
