Mr. Chairman. I want to commend the gentleman on one portion of his statement. and that deals with the original cause of this refugee problem. I believe too little has been said about why these people are fleeing their native land. They are fleeing. because the free world. and yes. the United States. gave up in our effort to help them stay free. Too many Americansincluding many in this Congress who are now wringing their hands about this refugee problemare some of the very ones who swallowed the line that the Vietnam Communists were simply a nationalistic movement from which we had nothing to fear. At the time I remember hearing many of these same people saying that the Vietnamese did not care who or what kind of government they had. Well. we know for sure now that our effort there was worthy and right. because the Vietnamese people by the hundreds of thousands are leaving all their worldly goods. their native land. risking their lives. and they are voting with their feet by leaving.
