SEC. 2. STRATEGY TO ACHIEVE OPERATIONAL CONTROL 
OF THE BORDER. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 
(1) The border shared by the United States and 
Mexico, and numerous Mexican towns in close prox-
imity to that border, have experienced a dramatic 
surge in crime and violence to ongoing activity 
among rival Mexican drug cartels and criminal 
smuggling organizations that employ predatory tac-
tics to realize their profits. 
(2) In August 2005, the States of New Mexico 
and Arizona declared states of emergency in order to 
provide local law enforcement immediate assistance 
in addressing criminal activity along the Southwest 
border. 
(3) A recent Government Accountability Office 
report found that only 44 percent of the Southwest 
border was under operational control, and less than 
two percent of the Northern border is under oper-
ational control.

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

Mrs. CLAYTON submitted the following concurrent resolution; which was
referred to the Committee on Government Operations
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of Congress that stimulus package
funds appropriated to accelerate the economy should be
equitably targeted to economically distressed areas that
have not benefited from the current economic recovery.
Whereas the economic recovery of recent months has by-
passed certain economically distressed rural and urban
areas;
Whereas the unemployment rate in certain rural and urban
areas continues to be unacceptably high;
Whereas rural areas may disproportionately suffer due to a
reduction in appropriated funds in the regular budget
process; and
HCON 72 IH
Whereas certain distressed areas cannot rely on the private
economy to stimulate their local economies: Now, there-
fore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
concurring), That Federal, State, and local entities should
target money appropriated for the purpose of stimulating
the economy to distressed rural and urban areas on an
equitable basis, using the following criteria:
(1) The percentage of the population residing in
metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas.
(2) The comparative degree of economic need as
measured—
(A)(i) in the case of a distressed commu-
nity located in a metropolitan area, by the ex-
tent its annual unemployment rate for 1992
and its most current poverty rate exceed the
national average for all metropolitan areas; or
(ii) in the case of a distressed community
located outside of a metropolitan area (includ-
ing rural areas) by the extent its annual unem-
ployment rate for 1992 and its most current
poverty rate exceed the national average for all
communities located outside of metropolitan
areas; and
(B) the extent to which a community may
be adversely affected by the actual or antici-

relations, with Romania, should be actions by the Govern-

Regarding broadcasting by Radio Free Europe to the former Yugoslavia.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
MARCH 29, 1993
Mr. LEVY (for himself, Mr. GILMAN, Mr. SOLOMON, Ms. MOLINARI, and Mr.
KING) submitted the following concurrent resolution; which was referred
to the Committee on Foreign Affairs
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Regarding broadcasting by Radio Free Europe to the former
Yugoslavia.
Whereas the conflict among the states of the former Yugo-
slavia is being exacerbated by propaganda and distorted
news coverage disseminated by state-controlled media in
the region;
Whereas due to such government-controlled propaganda and
control of the local media the peoples of the republics of
the former Yugoslavia, Serbia in particular, do not have
access to objective, unbiased reporting of the situation ei-
ther in the Balkans or in the outside world;
Whereas access to objective, unbiased news coverage by the
peoples of the former Yugoslavia will be an important ele-
ment in the eventual peaceful settlement of disputes and
HCON 76 IH
development of cooperation among the successor states of
the former Yugoslavia;
Whereas the content and techniques of broadcasting from re-
spected and established institutions outside of the region
can contribute to a moderation of the conflicts among the
states of the former Yugoslavia by providing a vitally
needed, balanced alternative to propaganda disseminated
by certain governments in the region, particularly Serbia,
and by stressing the need for reconciliation, democratiza-
tion, and cooperation among the former Yugoslav states;
Whereas events elsewhere in Eastern and Central Europe
have demonstrated that dissemination of truthful, credi-
ble information and analysis can play a significant role
in peaceful, democratic transformation; and
Whereas the broadcast activity of Radio Free Europe has
played an important role in the transformation of the na-
tions of Central Europe from communism toward democ-
racy and the rule of the law: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
concurring), That the Congress urges the Board for Inter-
national Broadcasting—
(1) to authorize RFE/RL, Incorporated to com-
mence immediate broadcast activity of Radio Free
Europe to the successor states of Yugoslavia;
(2) to ensure that such broadcast activity pro-
vides to the people of the region objective balanced
reporting of developments in the former Yugoslav
states and international reaction to the situation in
the former Yugoslavia so as to contribute to a peace-
HCON 76 IH
ful negotiated resolution of political and ethnic con-
flict among and within such states; and
(3) to ensure that such new broadcasting serv-
ice is adequately staffed with professional journalists
constituting a fair representation of the major ethnic
groups of the region who are trained and dedicated
to nonpartisan and objective analysis of the prob-
lems confronting the former Yugoslav states.

Mr. SUNDQUIST (for himself and Mr. TANNER) submitted the following con-
current resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Veterans’
Affairs
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
To prohibit any political demonstrations on hallowed ground
of national cemeteries.
Whereas Arlington National Cemetery is the final resting
place for those who have proudly served in defense of
their country;
Whereas these honored dead are due the full measure of our
Nation’s respect and gratitude; and
Whereas it cheapens their service and demeans their memory
to make Arlington National Cemetery a prop for political
demonstrations: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
concurring), That Arlington National Cemetery be placed
permanently off-limits for political demonstrations and
HCON 77 IH
displays, and that the grounds of Arlington National Cem-
etery be closed to those who would use the grounds as
a backdrop for protest.
