Speech #940058906

Mr. President. I shall vote against final passage of this bill . not because I am opposed to helping the Vietnamese refugeesbut because. as I said in my earlier statement. I sincerely believe that the approach embraced by S. 1661 and H.R. 6755 is the wrong way to go. Thus. my vote in the negativein effect. a protest vote for the reasons stated earlier by the Senator from North Carolina. I regret that my amendment In the nature of a substitute was rejected. It may be. that upon further and subsequent consideration. Senators may agree with me. But then. of course. it will be too late.
