Lebanon. Libya. Morocco. Pakistan. South Africa. and Tunisia. In each of these countries the backlog of applicants represents a catalog of individual and family tragedies. of people who seek here what our forebears sought and found here. This bill will open the door for 5.000 such people each year and though this is a small number in comparison with the total immigration picture. its passage would constitute a significant achievement both for the wellbeing of those affected and for the reputation of our country in the nations involved. I therefore hope that the Congress will act favorably upon this bill.
