I think the gentleman has made an extremely important point. I. myself. traveled to Thailand and saw the plight of the Hmong people. So did the ranking minority member of the subcommittee. the gentleman from New York .

It goes on to say that the special humanitarian concern could involve the relationship between people and the U.S. Government in the past. It explicitly refers to the Hmong tribes from North Central Laos and their plight. and their past connection with the U.S.
