H. CON. RES. 297
Expressing the sense of the Congress that President Clinton should ask
for the resignation of Joycelyn Elders as Surgeon General of the Public
Health Service.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
SEPTEMBER 26, 1994
Mr. STEARNS submitted the following concurrent resolution; which was
referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the Congress that President Clinton
should ask for the resignation of Joycelyn Elders as
Surgeon General of the Public Health Service.
Whereas the health and welfare of residents of the United
States is a national concern;
Whereas all public office holders have a solemn responsibility
to utilize their office to advance the general welfare of
residents of the United States;
Whereas the Surgeon General of the Public Health Service is
the most visible public health official in the United
States;
Whereas, as Surgeon General, Joycelyn Elders has failed in
her duty to represent all residents of the United States
•HCON 297 IH
by making statements that denigrate members of certain
religious and social groups;
Whereas previous Surgeon Generals have served with great
distinction and made substantial contributions to the
health and welfare of all residents of the United States;
Whereas Joycelyn Elders has used her office to advance a di-
visive and radical agenda;
Whereas the comments made by Joycelyn Elders regarding
the legality of the use and sale of narcotics undermine ef-
forts to enforce the laws of Federal, State, and local gov-
ernments; and
Whereas countless other qualified individuals have the knowl-
edge and temperament to perform the duties of the office
of the Surgeon General without dividing residents of the
United States along religious, political, and social lines:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
concurring), That it is the sense of the Congress that
President Clinton should ask for the resignation of
Joycelyn Elders as Surgeon General of the Public Health
Service.

Expressing the sense of Congress with respect to the United

Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
concurring), That it is the sense of Congress that—
(1) the protection of our Nation’s children from
exploitation must remain of the highest priority for
the United States Government;
(2) as a result of the integration of the United
States Customs Child Pornography and Protection
Unit into a larger division in February, 1991, em-
ployee hours spent investigating child pornography
from 1990 to 1992 were cut to barely one fourth of
•HCON 29 IH
the previous level, and arrests on child pornography
charges by United States Customs have been nearly
halved from 110 to 57 and convictions were reduced
from 103 to 69;
(3) the United States Customs Service should
reestablish a unit specifically tasked with enforcing
laws prohibiting child exploitation and pornography,
and prosecuting violators of those laws; and
(4) the efforts of this reestablished unit, as
measured by employee hours, arrests, and convic-
tions, should equal or exceed those of the United
States Customs Child Pornography and Protection
Unit in fiscal 1990.

Whereas the current violence has the potential to cause con-
flict along ethnic lines between Tajiks and Uzbeks
throughout the region;
Whereas the United Nations Security Council has called upon
all parties to reach a political solution and seek national
reconciliation;
Whereas the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Eu-
rope has established a mission in Tajikistan to seek ways
to revolve the conflict;
Whereas through the efforts of the Special Envoy of the Sec-
retary General of the United Nations to Tajikistan, nego-
tiations are now being conducted;
Whereas elections have been scheduled by the Government of
Tajikistan for November 6, 1994;
Whereas the success of a truly representative government will
assist with the development of a peaceful and stable
Central Asia and beyond;
Whereas the United States has successfully responded to ur-
gent needs for food and other humanitarian assistance in
the past;
Whereas food access rather than availability will be a critical
problem facing Tajikistan for the foreseeable future;
Whereas there remain significant shortages of necessary
building materials, wheat, cooking oil, soap, and shoes;
Whereas lack of fuel nationwide will delay food shipments to
Gorno Badakshan, creating severe food shortages in that
region, and has the potential to cripple the economy;
Whereas economic assistance can sometimes be given through

organizations,

microdevelopment projects, thus supporting the economy
from the bottom up;
Whereas continued support for the present of the United Na-
tions and other international organizations and for
microdevelopment projects could encourage the peaceful
return and reintegration of refugees and displaced
Tajiks; and
Whereas any unconditional economic assistance for the
central government in Dushanbe, by any party, amounts
to a failure to take advantage of political leverage to sup-
port national reconciliation and human rights: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
concurring),
(a) That it is the sense of the Congress that—
(1) while the Congress welcomes steps taken by
the Government of Tajikistan toward the holding of
open elections, it expresses its concerns that nomina-
tion, registration, and voting procedures are inad-
equate to ensure that such elections will be free and
fair; and
(2) any peacekeeping activities in Tajikistan
should be conducted in full conformity with United
Nations and international peacekeeping norms and
practices.
(b) That it is the further sense of the Congress that
the President—
HCON 2 IH
are ‘‘officers of the United States’’ who are subject to
Senate confirmation;
Whereas all ‘‘officers of the United States’’ must be citizens
of the United States, and all such officers must therefore
take an oath to defend the Constitution and may be im-
peached and removed from office for treason, bribery, or
other high crimes and misdemeanors;
Whereas the Panamanian members of the Board of the Pan-
ama Canal Commission are appointees to a United States
Federal Agency and are exercising the powers and re-
sponsibilities of ‘‘officers of the United States,’’ but are
foreign nationals and are therefore ineligible under the
Constitution of the United States to serve as members of
the Board of the Commission; and
Whereas the Panama Canal Act of 1979 is the implementing
legislation for the Panama Canal Treaties of 1977: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
concurring), That it is the sense of the Congress that the
President or the Congress should immediately abrogate
the Panama Canal Treaties of 1977 and the Treaty Con-
cerning the Permanent Neutrality and Operation of the
Panama Canal, and that the Congress should repeal the
Panama Canal Act of 1979.
