President Clinton wants to do it and congressional Republicans agree. But is it fair to tell legal aliens who work·and pay U.S. taxes that they cannot contribute $100 to the campaign of dte congressman who represents theiR as well as citizens in his district? Or contribute to his opponent if they .want a change? . · · · U~er the proposed change in campaign finance laws, small noncitizen . contnbutors are lumped in ~ith ~ Indonesian landscape architect who gave $450,000 to the Democrattc ~auonal Committee.' In his State of the Union message last week, Clinton urged Congress to suppon bipartisan legislation that be called' "tough and fair reform."

Mo.ments later, the president r~fenred to the same people in a more sympathetic way when be called on Congress to "restore basic bealth and disability benefits wben misfonune strikes immigrants who came to this country legally, who work hard, pay taxes and obey the law." . "~o do otherwise is simply unworthy of a great nation of immigrants," he SBid. · · · Sen. Jbhn McCain of Arizona is the Republican leading the drive to ~hange campaign finance laws. He has used the .example of the landscape ~~tchitect to argue for banning noncitizen contributions. .

' · · ·· "lftlley're citizens, then we have extradition procedures," said McCain. "If they're not citizens, there's no way in the world we can force them back." But.is the problem citizenship or is it six-figure contributions that roll in as unlimited "soft money" girts to political parties? ! ~· "If the Indonesian couple had given $450 rather than $450,000, we would :•ot be having this debate," said Fred Wertheimer, f1lrmer president of the blic i.n,terest gropp Com'llon .Cause.
