The last Congress spoke very clearly on the question of a visit by President Lee. The Senate approved unanimously a resolution offered by myself and Senator ROBB calling on the administration to make several changes to United StatesTaiwan policy. including allowing President Lee to visit the United States. Then. under Senator BROWNs leadership. the Senate agreed by a vote of 940 to amend United States immigration laws to add a provision specifically welcoming the leader of the Tatwanese people to enter the United States at any time to discuss issues of mutual concern. This amendment was eventually adopted by the Congress and signed into law. Unfortunately. up to now. the Clinton Administration has chosen to ignore Congress and yield to the Peoples Republic of China on this issue.
