Speech #1090136266

Mr. President. I understand the distinguished Senator from Pennsylvania is going to speak to correct one part of the record. but both Senator COLEMAN and I want to make sure the record is correct and Senators know what they are voting on. Some Senators. in speaking in opposition to the LeahyColeman amendment. suggested that members of Hamas. the Kurdish PKK. or the Basque separatist group might obtain refugee status in the U.S. because those terrorists organizations do not specifically target the United States. That is totally incorrect. They are not allowed in with this. Hamas. the Basque separatists. the Kurdish PKK are already listed as terrorist organizations by our government.
