Mr. Speaker, the Helms-Burton bill in terms of the claims that can be filed is not in effect until August 1. The President of the United States can defer that. We hope he will because we hope we are sending a strong signal by our action today and other countries in support of it as well.
Even at that, even if it goes into effect on August 1, it means that claims cannot be filed in the U.S. courts until November 1. By that point in time the details of this legislation will be in front of this House.
