Speaker. in a recent National Broadcasting Co. television program. the American people saw a shocking indictment of their Governments inaction in the tragedy of Americanfathered Vietnamese orphans. The program depicted the orphans plight in pictures. in a way that words could not accomplish. I hope the public learned the extent of their great need. for many of the orphans are dying of malnutrition. disease. or simply the lack of a loving parent. As the author of legislation. cosponsored by 60 of my colleagues. which will help remove immigration obstacles to American adoption of these orphans. I commend NBCs attention to this problem. While the written narrative conveys only a partial concept of the visual presentation.
