If the gentleman will yield further. I would say that the point here is for this government to recognize that its inaction or its faulty action in this case could very well produce a crisis in Central America which would have a devastating effect on the people of those countries and which would force them to be and to become refugees from their own country. If we are going to be sensitive to the plight of those potential refugees. as my colleague from California I think was seeking to raise the point earlier. we must be very attentive to actions which if faultily taken in this Congress will force them to become refugees from their land and force us to find some way to accommodate them within this country. We need to decide how we are going to share that accommodation throughout all regions of this country.
