under subsection (a) shall describe the potential economic 
impact of the applicable major bill or resolution on major

CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Whereas there are credible reports that on July 13,
1994, vessels of the Cuban Government fired high-
pressure water hoses, repeatedly rammed, and delib-
erately sank the ‘‘13th of March’’, a tugboat carrying
72 unarmed Cuban citizens;
Whereas approximately 40 of the men, women, and chil-
dren passengers on the ‘‘13th of March’’ drowned as
a result of the actions of the Cuban Government, in-
cluding over 20 children aboard;
Whereas President Clinton deplored the sinking of the
‘‘13th of March’’ as ‘‘another example of the brutal
nature of the Cuban regime’’;
•HCON 279 EH
Whereas on August 20, 1994, the President pledged that
‘‘The United States will continue to bring before the
United Nations and other international organizations
evidence of human rights abuses, such as the sinking
of the tugboat ‘13th of March.’ Meanwhile, we will
pursue this matter with vigor and determination.’’;
Whereas all of the male survivors of the ‘‘13th of March’’
have been imprisoned by the Cuban Government;
Whereas the freedom to emigrate is an internationally
recognized human right and freedom’s fundamental
guarantor of last resort; and
Whereas the Cuban Government, by prohibiting the exist-
ence of a free press and by jamming TV and Radio
Marti, denies the Cuban people the right of free ac-
cess to information, including information about this
tragedy: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
concurring), That the Congress—
(1) condemns the Cuban Government for delib-
erately sinking on July 13, 1994, the ‘‘13th of
March’’, a tugboat carrying 72 unarmed Cuban citi-
zens, causing the death of approximately 40 Cuban
citizens, including over 20 children;
(2) urges the President to direct the United
States Representative to the United Nations to urge
the United Nations Security Council to adopt a reso-
lution that—
