of the best strategies to combat the heroin crisis ac-
cording to Federal law enforcement officials.

ticable.

(a) REPORT ON OVERSEAS REFUGE PROCESSING.—
Not later than 90 days after the date of the enactment
of this Act, the Secretary shall provide to the appropriate
congressional committees a report on overseas processing
of refugees for admission to the United States.
(b) CONTENTS.—The report shall include the fol-
lowing detailed information:
(1) United States procedures for the identifica-
tion of refugees who are particularly vulnerable or
whose individual circumstances otherwise suggest an
urgent need for resettlement, including the extent to
which the Department now insists on referral by the
United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees as
a prerequisite to consideration of such refugees for
resettlement in the United States, together with a
plan for the expanded use of alternatives to such re-
ferral, including the use of field-based nongovern-
mental organizations to identify refugees in urgent
need of resettlement.
(2) The extent to which the Department makes
use in overseas refugee processing of the designation
of groups of refugees who are of special concern to
the United States, together with the reasons for any
decline in such use over the last 10 years and a plan
for making more generous use of such categories in
the future.
(3) The extent to which the United States cur-
rently provides opportunities for resettlement in the
United States of individuals who are close family
members of citizens or lawful residents of the United
States, together with the reasons for any decline in
the extent of such provision over the last 10 years
and a plan for expansion of such opportunities in
the future.
(4) The extent to which opportunities for reset-
tlement in the United States are currently provided
to ‘‘urban refugees’’ and others who do not currently
reside in refugee camps, together with a plan for in-
creasing such opportunities, particularly for refugees
who are in urgent need of resettlement, who are
members of refugee groups of special interest to the
United States, or who are close family members of
United States citizens or lawful residents.
(5) The Department’s assessment of the feasi-
bility and desirability of modifying the Department’s
current list of refugee priorities to create an addi-
tional category for refugees whose need for resettle-
ment is based on a long period of residence in a ref-
ugee camp with no immediate prospect of safe and
voluntary repatriation to their country of origin or

findings:

the world and hosted merchants, travelers, and art-
ists from China, India, central Asia, and the Roman
Empire.
(2) Such statues are part of the common herit-
age of mankind, which must be preserved for future
generations.
(3) On February 26, 2001, the leader of the
Taliban regime, Mullah Mohammad Omar, ordered
the destruction of all pre-Islamic statues in Afghani-
stan, among them a pair of 1,600-year-old, 100-foot-
tall statues of Buddha that are carved out of a
mountainside.
(4) The religion of Islam and Buddhist statues
have coexisted in Afghanistan as part of the unique
historical and cultural heritage of that nation for
more than 1,100 years.
(5) The destruction of the pre-Islamic statues
contradicts the basic tenet of the Islamic religion
that other religions should be tolerated.
(6) People of all faiths and nationalities have
condemned the destruction of the statues in Afghan-
istan, including Muslim communities around the
world.
(7) The destruction of the statues violates the
