Mr. President. I am outraged by the actions of the INS and of the Justice Departments Board of Immigration Appeals. who have almost routinely denied these requests for asylum. I know that my outrage is shared by my colleagues. who have twice adopted my amendment to require that the INS grant asylum to those who are fleeting Chinas population control agents. Let me remind my colleagues why they have twice supported my amendment. once by unanimous consent and once on a recorded vote of 95 to 0. by describing one case in which Chinese Government officials. through threats. harassment and intimidation. tried to get a Chinese couple residing in Phoenix to abort their baby.
