Summary

Expresses the sense of the Senate with respect to the banning of political activity in South Africa. Urges: (1) the U.S. Government to increase pressure on the South African Government through political, diplomatic, and economic measures; (2) the President to take immediate action to achieve numerical equivalence in diplomatic missions of the South African and U.S. Governments; and (3) approval of temporary U.S. visas requested by South Africans on a case-by-case basis only after consideration of the South African Government's record of allowing South African citizens, particularly members of anti-apartheid organizations, to travel to the United States.
