They believe that it is our obligation to help people who are fleeing dangerous civil conflicts. It is those same sentiments that have lead me to take action on this issue. I introduced legislation. H.R. 4447. which would temporarily suspend the deportation of Salvadorans now in the United States. The bill also calls on the President to provide Congress with a study on the conditions in El Salvador so that Congress can make a determination as to when it would be safe for Salvadorans to return to their homeland. I believe that there is the necessary support in the Houseand the Senateto pass this legislation.
