Mr. Speaker. I think that it is incredible that at the same time Secretary of State George Shultz is speaking of the need to increase the fight against international terrorism. the Reagan administration issues a visa to Roberto DAubuisson to enter this country. Over the weekend. press reports indicated that DAubuisson may have been involved in a plot to assassinate U.S. Ambassador to El Salvador Thomas Pickering. And even if he wasnt directly involved in the plotting. he is implicated to the degree that he was in a position to stop it until U.S. officials talked to him. Granting of a visa to Mr. DAubuisson is especially outrageous because just last December. Vice President GEORGE BUSH assured me: * * * we have no intention of knowingly admitting anyone to the United States. either on a temporary or permanent basis. who would pose a threat to you or to any other American.
