It has been 18 years since Nelson Mandela was released from prison and 14 years since he was elected president of South Africa. And this year he will turn 90 years old. Yet to this day. to this day. despite his legacy as a hero of the antiapartheid movement. despite the fact that he is a Nobel Peace Prize recipient. he received the Peace Prize in 1993. despite his election as president. we still require Nelson Mandela to apply for a visa waiver to enter into the United States just for a visit. This is just plain wrong. Last December I traveled to South Africa for World AIDS Day with our colleague. the Delegate DONNA CHRISTENSEN.
