In addition to that. this House has passed H.R. 45. which would extend that protection for 3 years. Under that legislation. which ought to be taken up in the Senate. we have protection for 3 years to every Chinese national. Tomorrow the Attorney General could issue a regulation which made clear under the refugee act that individuals who were threatened with abortions or forced sterilizations should be treated as refugees. He has not chosen to do so. I wish that the Members who are pressing this motion were pressing the Attorney General. because he has the power to solve this problem.
