Responding to the Senator. this amendment condemns the practice. which I am sure everybody in this Chamber would. It goes further and says that visas will be denied to those individuals for whom there is credible evidence that they have been involved in perpetrating the practice of coerced abortions. That credible evidence would be determined by the Department of State. by the Secretary of State herself. if need be. When we talk about enforcement. when we talk about the number of people involved. we are talking here. speaking in this amendment. about credible evidence. and there are human rights groups as well who monitor the conditions in China. who monitor human rights abuses in China. who come forward with reports. And there will be and has been from time to time evidence of individuals who are involved in this horrendous practice. We would say that those individuals for whom there is credible evidence that they have been involved in forced abortions should not be allowed to receive a visa and travel to the United States.
