those countries are vietnam, jamaica, china, india, ethiopia, laos and iran. these countries won't take back their convicted criminals. these individuals are really people without a country. so what happens to them? because they have served their time in our federal and state prisons for felonies, they are actually released back into our communities. they are people without a country. right now, there are over 1 60,000 of these criminal aliens roaming our nation and our streets. these people have been lawfully deported after they served their prison time, but their home nation refuses to take them back. so i'm introducing legislation that will plug up this loophole. my bill will make it more likely they will go back where they came from. this bill says that any country who won't take back lawfully convicted foreign nationals who have been deported will lose foreign aid. but china, for example, doesn't receive foreign aid. so what will happen to china is, they will not receive legal visas for their citizens to come into the united states. no more student visas
