Congress passed nonbinding measures declaring that the United States should make Tibets situation a higher policy priority and urged China to establish a constructive dialogue with the Dalai Lama. As a Member of Congress. I am interested in the welfare and human rights affairs of the Tibetan people and have previously proposed an amendment to provide $2 million in the Economic Support Fund for monitoring the human rights situation in Tibet and for training and education of Tibetans in democracy activities and an additional $2 million in the Emergency Refugee and Migration Assistance Fund for the Tibetan refugee program. Madam Speaker. I am a staunch advocate for human rights and desire to see the plight of the Tibetan people rectified.
