Speech #970196921

Mr. President. I am gratified that the administration has finally reversed its policy of restricting the temporary immigration status of Ethiopians in the United States. In doing so. the administration has recognized the tragic fact that human rights conditions have not changed inside Ethiopia since we first began approving requests of Ethiopians for extended voluntary departure status over a year ago. This was the point of the letter I wrote to former Secretary of State Haig over 6 months ago. And this was the thrust of the resolutions that were introduced last month in both the House and Senatecosponsored by more than 60 Members of Congress.
