These are people who. during the Vietnamese conflict. fought on our side. were indirectly paid by the CIA. and are systematically being eliminated. I recently read they are being experimented on by the Vietnamese with gas warfare. There are about 40.000 Hmong tribesmen in a camp called Loei in Thailand. I had originally prepared an amendment to give them special consideration. I have been dissuaded by the subcommittee chairwoman. I would like to ask her if in the committee report or in some place in the legislation whether or not special consideration can be given to these people who fought for our country. died in great numbers. and now are languishing in refugee camps in Thailand.
