President. that it also adds an additional cause for exclusionterrorist activities. When we passed the original McCarran Act. terrorist activities were not part of the international scene. So it does have that provision. which I think everyone would agree with. It says notwithstanding any other provision of this act. no one shall be denied a nonimmigrant visa because of his or her lawful political beliefs. activities. or associations. Mr. President. let me give you a small list of the names of people who have been denied temporarily at least. or would have been deemed excludable. under the McCarran Act: Pierre Trudeau. former Prime Minister of Canada.
