I have been working hard with some of my colleagues to pass legislation like this through the Senate. I am therefore pleased that we are close to seeing this humane relief finally enacted into law. Still. I want to express my hope that we can return to the issue soon and do even more for our Chinese guests. For example. we should not lose sight of the longterm assistance provided to the students in the immigration Act of 1989 . which is now pending in the House. H.R. 2712 and S. 1218 were always conceived as stopgap measures that address only the most urgent needs of Chinese visitors. They do not discharge our responsibilities entirely.
