Mr. Chairman. I rise In support of H.R. 6755. The House Committee on the Judiciaryand especially the subcommittee chaired by the gentleman from Pennsylvania -has worked long and hard in developing a balanced legislative response to the problem which confronts us all in the resettlement of the tragic refugees from Southeast Asia. The committee was challenged to deal with a fluid. complex. and admittedly emotional issue with wisdom and compassion. coupled with an open eye to reality. It was a challenging task. coming as it did in the wake of confused. indeed puzzled. reaction by the American public. They look to us to explain and clarify. and in this case they expect us to find a solution to what could be a problem of staggering dimensionsthousands of homeless strangers in a land beset by its own inner turmoil and economic chaos.
