Mr. Speaker. I rise in strong support of the motion to override the Presidents veto of H.R. 2712. the Emergency Chinese Immigration Relief Act. It is essential that we enact this bill to give statutory protection to Chinese students in the United States. The administrative directive issued by the President simply does not give adequate protection to the Chinese students living in this country. Mr. Speaker. the massacres and executions in Tianamen Square shocked and disgusted the world. Today. 7 months later. the violent oppression continues and the ramifications reach far beyond the borders of the Peoples Republic. The U.S. must deliver an unequivocal. united message to the government In Beijing: Your flagrant disregard for the human rights of peaceful protesters Is reprehensible and will not be tolerated.
