I support the agreement on trade relations between the United States and the Peoples Republic of China. together with the extension of nondiscriminatory tariff treatment to the PRC. This agreement is essential to the positive development of our overall relations with China. and it will provide a framework of mutual benefit for future commercial dealings between our two countries. In light of Chinas recent liberal emigration practices. the administration has waived sections 402(a) and 402(b) of the 1974 Trade Act. As required under title IV of the act. the President has notified Congress that he has received satisfactory assurances from China pertaining to freer emigration. Mr. President. I have had. and will continue to have. a deep and abiding concern for the right of people in all countries to emigrate freely. During my 17 years in the Senate. I have worked repeatedly to unite divided families not only from China. but from the Soviet Union.
