Mr. Speaker. I thank the gentleman for yielding this time to me. Mr. Speaker. I rise in support of H.R. 2712. the Emergency Chinese Immigration Relief Act of 1989. But I also support the motion offered by our distinguished Republican leader to refer the bill and the Presidents memorandum of disapproval to the Foreign Affairs and Judiciary Committees. I support that motion because it contains explicit instructions to those two committees to promptly report back their recommendations after considering the events and actions which have occurred since the bill passed the Congress last November. In this connection I noted with interest that the Judiciary Committee in the other body held a hearing on this veto yesterday.
