In 1999, Gao Xiao Duan, a former Chinese administrator of the one-couple, one-child policy, appeared before the United States Congress to address this policy. In Duan's testimony, he recalled, "Once I found a woman [in China] who was nine months pregnant but did not have a birth-allowed certificate. According to policy, she was forced to undergo an abortion. In the operating room, I saw how the aborted child's lips were sucking, how its limbs were stretching. A physician intected poison into its skull, and the child died and was thrown into the trash can."
