H. J. RES. 57 
IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES 
OCTOBER 6, 2004 
Received 
JOINT RESOLUTION 
Expressing the sense of the Congress in recognition of the 
contributions of the seven Columbia astronauts by sup-
porting establishment of a Columbia Memorial Space 
Science Learning Center. 
Whereas the crew of the space shuttle Columbia was dedi-
cated to scientific research and stimulating the interest 
of American children in space flight and science;
HJ 57 RDS 
Whereas the Columbia crew carried out science projects of 
American schoolchildren; 
Whereas the members of that crew gave their lives trying to 
benefit the education of American children; 
Whereas a fitting tribute to that effort and to the sacrifice 
of the Columbia crew and their families is needed; 
Whereas an appropriate form for such tribute would be to ex-
pand educational opportunities in science by the creation 
of a center and museum to offer children and teachers 
activities and information derived from American space 
research; 
Whereas the former manufacturing site of the space shuttles 
(including the Columbia and the Challenger) in the city 
of Downey, California, is a fitting site for such a tribute; 
Whereas residents of Downey are proud of their role in build-
ing the space shuttle fleet and in furthering the Nation’s 
space program; and 
Whereas city officials have been working with NASA rep-
resentatives to develop the center in Downey: Now, there-
fore, be it 
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives 
of the United States of America in Congress assembled, 
That it is the sense of the Congress that— 
(1) the space science learning center in Dow-
ney, California, should be designated as the Colum-
bia Memorial Space Science Learning Center as a 
living memorial to the seven Columbia astronauts
HJ 57 RDS 
who died serving their country in the name of

(2) the Federal Government, along with public

tinue to cooperate in the establishment of such a 
center.

JOINT RESOLUTION
Disapproving the rules submitted by the Secretary of the
Treasury relating to section 326(a) of the Uniting and
Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools
Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PA-
TRIOT ACT) Act of 2001.
Whereas section 326(a) of the Uniting and Strengthening
America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to
Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT
ACT) Act of 2001 amended section 5318 of title 31,
United States Code, to require the Secretary of the
Treasury to draft regulations that, at a minimum, re-
quired financial institutions to implement procedures for
verifying the identity of any person seeking to open an
account, to the extent reasonable and practicable;
•HJ 58 IH
Whereas the Secretary of the Treasury issued final rules pur-
suant to that provision on April 30, 2003;
Whereas such rules, as promulgated, permit financial institu-
tions to accept certain unverifiable forms of identification
from ‘‘non-United States persons’’ in direct violation of
the clear intent of Congress as expressed in section
326(a) of the USA PATRIOT Act;
Whereas there is abundant evidence of the non-verifiable and
unreliable nature of identification documents issued by
foreign governments to foreign nationals residing within
the United States, including the ‘‘Matricula Consular’’
card issued by the Government of Mexico;
Whereas the Government of Mexico has acknowledged that
there is no civil or criminal penalty for making false
statements in its application for the ‘‘Matricula Con-
sular’’ card;
Whereas many additional foreign governments will undoubt-
edly follow the example of Mexico if the United States
Government gives formal sanction to the use of Mexico’s
‘‘Matricula Consular’’ identification cards; and
Whereas a massive number of unverifiable documents being
used by foreign nationals within the United States poses
a national security threat through a potential vast expan-
sion of bank accounts used for the transfer of money
abroad: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives
of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That Congress disapproves the rules submitted by the Sec-
retary of the Treasury relating to section 5318(l) of title
31, United States Code, as amended by section 326(a) of
•HJ 58 IH
the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Ap-
