H.R. 2966. which allows Chinese students here to apply for temporary residence if the President cannot certify 4 years from now that it is safe for students to return to China. My bill takes Ms. PELOSIs actions to the next logical step and reflects a growing consensus in the House. The Senate has already given its endorsement to this concept during recent debate on the Immigration bill. I do not believe there is a Member here who would advocate forcing these students to go back to China and meet an uncertain fate. These students are the best hope for democracy that China has. and we have a moral obligation as the leader of the free world to provide a safe haven for them.
