I serve as chairman of the Helsinki Commission and the International Operations and Human Rights Committee. I happen to believe that human rights violated anywhere against anyone must be spoken out against. But here we have refugees with this narrowly construed language in the bill. and I want to salute the gentleman from Louisiana. and the gentleman from Alabama for having the wisdom to say we have got to get the help to these people. They need it. And I know it is against some of the wisdom on this floor and it is against the Armenian lobby. of which I am very often in support and they in support of me.
