Also each of the Baltic States have troops participating in outofarea NATO missions. One of the provisional reconstruction teams in Afghanistan is led by Lithuanian troops. Do these soldiers operating within the North American Treaty Organization not count toward their troop commitment in the language of this amendment? These are important questions that need to be addressed. As Cochairman of the House Baltic Caucus. I understand the concerns that the Baltic countries have with this amendment. and I urge the conferees of the immigration bill to keep their concerns in mind as we work through the differences between both the Senate and the House.
