They represent the finest tradition of American citizenship. But in the midst of all the blessings they enjoy as Americans. there is always the heartache in being separated from their loved ones. We can correct this situation now by passing this bill and completing the great purposes of the Refugee Relief Act. I introduced a bill. H. R. 8926. to accomplish these purposes and to also admit the 58.000 refugees who were left in the pipeline because processing of their papers had not been completed when the act expired. I hope in the next session of Congress we may give consideration to that measure. In the meantime the present bill is a good beginning and it does accomplish the noble purpose of reuniting families and in allowing children to join their parents.
