Speech #840233281

I have been made aware. Mr. President. and have been kept informed of discussions of the possibility that some minor amendments to the present law and to the Refugee Relief Act might be considered and enacted before this session ends. and that we might be able to take some small steps forward in the direction of justice. or at least to provide for the entry of a few more persons from abroad into this country and the removal of some of the inflexible and dehumanizing barriers which now exist both in the McCarranWalter Act and in the Refugee Relief Act. Mr. President.
