I do not believe we should roll back that decision today. Third. the bill creates a new category of political asylum for persons fleeing coercive population practices. I have opposed this provision from its inception because I believe it may open a floodgate of false claims for immigrants from certain countries not otherwise able to enter the United States. Fourth. the conference report restores several provisions that require withholding of U.S. contributions to the United Nations--provisions that were struck from the Senate bill at my request. I believe that we have reached the limits of this nickelanddime approach to reforming the United Nations and that these narrow withholding requirements have become counterproductive.
