Three quick points. If you follow this logic, then no American plane should fly into Saigon, no American plane should fly into China, no American plane should fly into Russia, because indeed property was confiscated at the time of the Russian revolution, the Chinese taking, or, for that matter, what happened in Vietnam. There are American properties there. This is not about American property rights. This is about legalistically trying to undo that which has been changed. The other thing it is about is, again, legalism. What the bill actually says is if a boat docks in the previous 180 days within 7 miles of a port or property where there may be land somewhere connected. This is a legalistic attempt to undo what the President has proposed. The Acting CHAIR. The time of the gentlewoman from California has expired.
