These are the same nations which face almost insurmountable external debt problems. which they cannot hope to solve without healthy foreign markets such as the United States. These are the same nations that get the least foreign assistance from us. And these are the same peoples most discriminated against in our immigration admission laws. Troubling arguments have also been raised about the effect this legislation would have on consumers. especially those poor consumers who cannot afford to pay more for clothing. I am not convinced that passage of this bill is in the best interest of the millions of those citizens in the same way that it Is claimed to protect U.S. textile workers.
