Since the President gave the waiver in March. the U.S. taxpayer has been paying for Eximbank and OPIC subsidies of trade and investment in Vietnam. Many of these taxpayer dollars subsidize ventures owned in large part by the Government of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Overregulation and widespread corruption make Vietnam a terrible place to do business. Mr. Speaker. let me also remind Members. I was the prime sponsor of the amendment back in 1995. We had a hot debate. because we were sending people back who were real refugees. Yes. there has been some progress on ROVR. But we find that it slows to a trickle. to nothingness. when they decide to turn off the spigot.
