President Duarte and the people of his country have endured so much that this seems blatantly unfair. As a Congresswoman. I am also angry that the same administration that would receive President Duartes children for protection would continue to press criminal charges against American church people engaged in the sanctuary movement who are trying to protect other El Salvadoran refugees. I hope. with all my heart. that this administration rethinks its position and stops prosecuting American citizens who are trying to aid refugees from El Salvador. When we admit the children of the President of that country. saying they cannot be protected. how can we possibly say that regular citizens can be safe? I also hope that this House moves as rapidly as it can on the Moakley bill. because that will help solve the problem.
