If U.S. courts are free to exercise their discretion and refuse to entertain these suits under the doctrine of forum not convenience. as the distinguished Senator from Pennsylvania has indicated. then that concern has been addressed. I am also encouraged to hear that. as a practical matter. this legislation will result in a very small number of cases. indeed. I trust that the parties will pay for the costs to U.S. taxpayers that this open door policy could generate. Did I understand my colleague from Pennsylvania to say that these cases will not be accepted in U.S. courts unless a defendant has certain contacts with this country?
