Note that while the gentleman from Pennsylvania was valiantly defending the Government of El Salvador against this bill. the Government of El Salvador is for this bill. It wants to be in it. What we are doing here. not because they ask it. but we are doing something the Government of El Salvador favors. They understand that this is not to be a criticism of them. It is not meant to say that they have oppressed human rights. It is a recognition that there is violence within their country. They would like for that not to be. They would like not to have an armed revolution. but this deals with the question of the violence within the country. It is not refugee status.
