Speaker. the gentleman from Massachusetts has been remarkably adept in reaching a compromise with the Members of the Committee on the Judiciary. The chairman of the Committee on Rules worked closely with the new chairman of the Judiciary Committee. the gentleman from Texas . the two of them have done an admirable job. The legislation made in order by this rule would also extend temporary protected status to individuals from the Peoples Republic of China. Mr. Speaker. the world watched in horror early this summer when the Chinese Government brutally repressed pro.democracy demonstrations In Tiananmen Square in Beiilng. The legislation made in order by this rule provides a congressional response to the problems faced by Chinese students who were in the United States at the time of the democracy demonstrations and who. because of their association with the United States. would be in danger if forced to return to China. The legislation made in order by this rule provides temporary protected status to both the Chinese and the two Central American groups. Mr. Speaker.
