I am tired. Mr. Chairman. of hearing analogies between Central America and Vietnam. What some seem to forget is that there was an ocean between southeast Asia and the United States. My constituents in Los Angeles County are closer to El Salvador than they are to Washington. D.C. And it is areas like Los Angeles that will have to absorb the millions of refugees that will flee that region if we fail to act responsibly now. We have no choice. We must support the Presidents proposalsand we must do so with a commitment to see this project through to the end.
