Mr. Chairman. I strongly support H.R. 45. a bill that will provide temporary protected status for 3 years to nationals of China. Nicaragua. and El Salvador. I commend our colleague BRUCE MORRISON for crafting such a timely and Important bill. Since June 4. when the Chinese Government turned tanks and guns against its own citizens. killing hundreds If not thousands. the world was put on notice that Beijing was being ruled by Individuals out of touch with International norms of decency. Millions marched around the world to protest this brutalitymany of them here In the United States. Clearly. the United States had to take steps to protect those It could. and send as strong a message as possible to the Chinese Government that their actions were unconscionable and would come at a cost.
