The Senator from California is correct. As he has stated. the bill includes a provision specifically for the consideration of the refugee problem. This is the first time that refugee provisions have been placed in our permanent immigration law. The bill contains a definition of the refugees that we will accept. of how they will be admitted. and from what particular parts of the world they may come. I refer the Senator from California to page 35 of the bill. which establishes quite clearly what we mean by refugeesthose fleeing from Communist domination. from the effects of natural calamity. or from the defined areas in the Middle East.
