Mr. Speaker. the House overwhelmingly passed H.R. 3434. the Social Services and Child Welfare Amendments. on August 2. 1979. by a vote of 401 to 2. I regret that I was not able to be present because of my participation as a member of a delegation appointed by the Speaker to inspect Indochinese refugee camps. But H.R. 3434 contains many of the reforms in the Nations foster care and adoption system which I first proposed in 1975. and it must be enacted this year. without further delay. The vote of the House indicates the broad bipartisan support for this legislation. as does the virtually unanimous support from interested organizations and individuals throughout the United States.
