A fascinating fact for this debate. The State Department estimates that 1.500 people have departed from the United States for El Salvador between April and August 1984. while approximately 2.000 Salvadorans have returned voluntarily from Honduras over that same period. That is the most salient fact that speaks with greatest clarity against the EVD option. If conditions were as so often stated by proponents of EVD. this phenomenon would obviously not be occurring. Mr. President. I believe that this is only further clear evidence that the granting of any blanket immigration status to nationals of El Salvador is unwise and unwarranted.
