I urge my colleagues to pass the Chinese Student Protection Act. I introduced this legislation on June 4. 1991. the 2 year anniversary of the bloody massacre at Tiananmen Square. This bill would permit those covered by President Bushs 1989 Executive order. which stayed the deportation of Chinese Nationals in the United States at the time of the tragedy. to apply for permanent residency beginning July 1. 1993. The only condition under which those covered by the Executive order could not apply for permanent residency is if the President certifies before July 1. 1993. that it is safe for them to return to China. For the last year.
