Joseph Cao: “Do not listen to what they say but watch what they do.”

The passage of the Vietnam Human Rights Act through the House speaks very loudly of where we are as a government.

I urge the U.S. Congress to present the Vietnam Human Rights Act, to present the Vietnam Sanctions Act.

We ask that this House and this administration will heed the voice of the oppressed around the world, particularly those of the people of Vietnam.

April 30, 1975, was the day of infamy for the millions of Vietnamese whose future was dashed when their freedom was extinguished by the brutal assault on South Vietnam by Communist forces in blatant violation of the 1973 Paris Peace Accord.
