October 28. It is very important that all the facts about this most unfortunate incident be brought to light. America has always prided itself as a Nation which provides safe haven for political refugees. That is why I find it so hard to understand why U.S. officials would return to his oppressors an Eastern bloc national who wished to seek asylum in the United States. This bill will bring to light the facts we need to know how to prevent such a debacle from reoccurring. I do not think there is any doubt that Miroslav Medvid was coerced into changing his mind.
