President. I have every expectation that further action will be taken after the coming recess. Our actions today will assure Chinese students of three important protections: First. that those who are here on exchange visitor programsthose on socalled Jvisascan adjust to other immigration statuses for which they are eligible. but without the usual requirement that they first spend 2 years back home. Second. that if they participate in the Attorney Generals programthat is. if they accept his "extended deferred departure"-they will still be eligible to apply for other more permanent visa programs. Under current law. this would not be possible. Finally. that they are clearly eligible for employment authorization.
