We in Congress must send a message as well. We must make it clear that we require a verification of the fate of 2.413 of our most patriotic citizens and that the American people. the administration. and the Congress of the United States speak with one voice in this matter. General Vessey will also be addressing many humanitarian concerns of both the United States and Vietnam. the resettlement of Amerasians still in Vietnam. the release of political prisoners in Vietnamese reeducation camps. and finally. the restart of the emigration procedures of the orderly departure program for those Vietnamese who wish to leave their country. The resolution not only expresses the full support of the House of Representatives for General Vessey. but also calls on the Government of Vietnam to respond positively to the humanitarian concerns of the American people. We support and pray for the success of General Vesseys mission.
