I reject the voice which I hear this afternoon that says. "Well. we are going in to risk this bill with a possibility of a veto or we are getting a stalemate With the House of Representatives on a minor issue." Either we feel the issue of human rights is important or it is not. Why is it always the human rights issues that get lost or are put aside? Why is it always the refugees in Bangladesh who suffered because we wanted to continue a military assistance program for Pakistan so that we could have some influence on Pakistan. We saw the results on that policy. We saw massive numbers of individuals die and others made homeless by that policy.
