As a nation. we sent their fathers to Asia in our countrys service. and we share the responsibility for these youngsters. Tragically. many of these children are outcasts. The Vietnamese term for them translates to "the dust of life." In Korea. they are denigrated as "halfbreeds." Today. we can act to end that tragedy for thousands of these sons and daughters of America. I congratulate the gentleman from Connecticut for his persistent efforts to see this legislation through the Congress. The chairman of the Judiciary Committee. Mr. RODINO. the chairman of the Immigration Subcommittee. Mr. MAZZOLI. and the Speaker also deserve credit for their assistance in bringing this important bill before us.
