As our hostages approach their fifth month in captivity. more than 41.000 Iranians are enjoying all the benefits of the United States. including the freedom to move about without restriction. .Mr. Speaker. I think it is time to set a deadline for the release of our hostages. If that deadline is ignored. stronger measures must be taken. Those measures should include closer scrutiny of those Iranians permitted to enter the United States. While some may be political refugees. I am not convinced all fall into that category. We should consider a daily fine to be deducted from Iranian assets for each day our hostages are held after a certain date.
