The Cardinal goes on to say. "May China. under your able leadership. be internationally known as a country which has true religious freedom." In calling for the freedom of these bishops. of course. Cardinal Kung. who is in exile because he cannot practice his faith in China. is calling the worlds attention to the religious persecution of Catholics as well as Christians. Muslims and Buddhists in China. If this Congress is willing to withhold a visa to a family member of a Canadian businessman because he is doing business with Cuba. why should we not withhold a visa for a repressor of religion in China? I urge my colleagues to support the leadership of the gentleman from New York and vote "aye."
