Mr. President. I would add that special circumstances prompt the introduction of this bill. They include the serious doubt that the subjects of this bill would benefit under the refugee provisions of S. 500. the pending immigration bill. I would hope. however. that the bill I offer today. and other limited bills offered by my colleagues. do not detract from continuing efforts to abolish the national origins quota system of selecting immigrants. This objective is of major and overriding importance. and one which. hopefully. will be attained in the very near future. .Mr. President. I ask unanimous consent that the bill I offer today lay on the desk for 1 week for additional cosponsors.
