Not later. The measure I propose is straightforward. It bars people who have come to this country on nonimmigrant visas from being able to purchase or possess a gun. Let me emphasize that the vast majority of the people who come to this country on nonimmigrant visas do not have any kind of criminal background and do not intend to buy guns or harm anyone. And that is why the legislation has two Important and sensible exceptions. First. foreign nationals who enter this country on nonimmigrant visas and who are here for legitimate sporting purposes. law enforcement purposes or diplomatic purposes will be exempt. It only makes sense that someone who Is here to take part In a shooting competition should be able to bring in their gun. The second exception allows people here on nonimmigrant visas to buy a firearm If they have been in this country for 6 months and if they can prove that they do not have a criminal record In their country of origin. Mr. President. this Is a rational piece of legislation.
