But why was he not. and the gentleman from Nebraska not. down here railing when this administration and its predecessor administration gave and accorded blanket protective status to Ugandans. to the Polish. to the Ethiopians. to the Afghanistans? Is there something so different about the situation in the Peoples Republic of China. or the situation in El Salvador or in Nicaragua that says we cannot do it here? We should only do it there? There is an argument that this will be a magnet. The fact is the terms of this bill limit that temporary protected status only to people who arrived in the United States before July 1. 1989. This is not an open invitation to come to the United States to protect their legal status. These people are here.
