W. Bush on 11 April 1990. It deferred deportation of Chinese nationals and their direct dependents who were in the US between 5 June 1989 and 11 April 1990, waived the 2-year home country residency requirement, and gave them employment authorization through 1 January 1994.[1]

It was issued as part of the international backlash against the People's Republic of China (PRC) in response for its suppression of the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests that occurred 4 June of that year. It was made permanent when the Chinese Student Protection Act was passed in 1992.
