Major Numbers in All Categories top

Voted for a ceiling in 1990 that would have prevented immigration from snowballing to its current levels.

Rep. McMillan voted for the Smith amendment to H.R.4300 that would have maintained hard caps on most categories of immigration. If Rep. McMillan?s hand had been the only one on the congressional lever in 1990, over 40% of the increase in immigration caused by the 1990 Act would have been blocked. Because the majority of Congress did not agree with Rep. McMillan, the actual level today is around one million a year. That contrasts with the traditional American level of only around 250,000 before 1980 and of around 500,000 a year during the 1980s. Rep. McMillan voted with 143 others for this amendment which would have placed an absolute annual ceiling of 630,000 on family, worker and lottery immigration. They were defeated 266 to 143.

Voted against huge immigration increase in 1990

Rep. McMillan stood with around 100 other Representatives in 1990 firmly opposing H.R.4300 that radically increased annual immigration numbers. Traditional American immigration had averaged around 250,000 a year until the 1980s when it dramatically rose to around 500,000. Then in 1990 Congress passed legislation that removed or increased limits in most immigration categories. Since then, immigration has risen to around 1,000,000 (one million) a year. Rep. McMillan voted twice against that bill and all aspects of that increase.See detailed description.
