Pelham: And return to policy we had before Teddy Kennedy's 1965 immigration bill became law.

Torie: So you favor unrestricted Hispanic immigration I see.

Is that what Operation Wetback was?

To: Sabertooth
I need to research this issue more. I will do that in time. I read that there was no limit to Western Hemisphere immigration prior to the 1964 Immigration Act, but I do know that there was some sort of Bracero program perhaps before that, which would be inconsistent. It could be that I am wrong. I hate when that happens. :)
