Mr. President. I am happy to join with two of my colleagues today in cosponsoring legislation which will bring an amount of redress to the suffering children of Vietnam who have been abandoned by their American fathers or who have. because of the war. become its tragic victim as an orphan or refugee. Mr. Don Luce. who was for years with the International Volunteer Service in Vietnam. estimates that our servicemen have fathered 200.000 children. For the most part. these children have been sheltered by their relatives. but those little babies who are darker skinned. fathered by black Americans. have been the most discriminated against.
Identified stereotypes
