Madam Speaker. I thank the gentleman for yielding. I commend the chairman of the subcommittee for this legislation. and the gentleman from Connecticut for their perseverance in this matter. Madam Speaker. I rise today in earnest support of the Amerasian Immigration Act. The argument for this bill is simple and straightforward. It rests on the basic principles of compassion. justice and responsibility. Madam Speaker. as we all know. this legislation deals with the heartbreaking problem of the children American servicemen left behind in Southeast Asia. These children have committed no crime. These children have done no wrong. Yet they are in a sad and unhappy state.
