Res. 109 Ainety-ninth Congress of the United States of America AT THE FIRST SESSION Begun and held at the City of Washington on Thursday, the third day of January, one thousand nine hundred and eighty-five Joint Resolution WHITE HOUS To designate the week of April 14, 1985, as "Crime Victims Week". Whereas crime often inflicts considerable physical and emotional pain and financial hardship upon its victims, disrupting their lives, and placing great strains upon their families; Whereas our criminal justice system has often failed to provide the victims of crime with the compassionate treatment they deserve; Whereas it is the fundamental obligation of government to protect its citizens from the criminal element; Whereas there is a national movement in support of more just and compassionate treatment of victims of crime; Whereas the establishment of the President's Task Force on Victims of Crime and an Office for Victims of Crime in the Department of Justice, and enactment of the Victim and Witness Protection Act of 1982 and the Victims of Crime Act of 1984 evidence the Federal Government's increased awareness of the plight of crime victims; and Whereas further efforts are needed, at all levels of government and in the private sector, to help ease the trauma suffered by crime victims: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation designating April 14 through April 20, 1985, as "Crime Victims Week" and calling upon the people of the United States, State and local government agencies, and interested organizations to observe that week with appropriate ceremonies, activities, and programs.

Res. 107, expressing the sense of the House of Representatives with respect to extending voluntary departure status to nationals of Guatemala The Office of Management and Budget requests the views of your agency on the above subject before advising on its relationship to the program of the President, in accordance with OMB Circular A-19. Please provide us with your views no later than Monday, June 10, 1985. Direct your questions to Branden Blum (395-3454), the legislative attorney in this office. James C. Murr for Assistant Director for Legislative Reference Enclosure CC: F. Fielding T. Treacy S. Brentlinger J. Cooney S. Gates United States Department of State Washington, D.C. 20520 Dear Mr. Chairman: Thank you for your letter of March 13, 1985 enclosing H. Res. 107, which expresses the sense of the House of Representatives with regard to extended voluntary departure (EVD) status for Guatemalans, and requesting our views. Our comments on the resolution relate solely to whether the Secretary should recommend extended voluntary departure status to the Attorney General. The Department does not believe it would be appropriate in current circumstances to recommend extended voluntary departure status for Guatemalans in the United States for a variety of reasons concerning our foreign and immigration policies. EVD grants have been rare because of the serious foreign and domestic policy ramification of withholding the deportation of illegal aliens. The Department invariably considers a number of factors in deciding whether to recommend a grant of EVD, for EVD may meet different objectives in different cases. We would note that, in particular, the extent of violence or civil unrest alone does not determine the Department's view toward the granting of EVD to nationals of a particular country. It is true that serious human rights violations continue to occur in Guatemala. It is also clear, however, that significant improvements have continued to occur during the past two years. Our view of this improving situation is contained in the Country Reports on Human Rights Practices submitted to the Congress for 1983 and 1984 in accordance with Sections 116(d) and 502B(b) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended. A separate judgment of the improving, although still serious, human rights situation may be found in the report of Lord Colville, the U.N.-appointed Rapporteur for Guatemala. Lord Colville is a respected human rights expert who visited Guatemala on numerous occasions in preparation of his report. In regard to the continuing problem of disappearances, he wrote that many cases may really be voluntary efforts of individuals to disappear from society, while other cases may be criminally inspired. Another fact which may not have been considered by the sponsors of the resolution is that increasing numbers of Guatemalan refugees are voluntarily returning to Guatemala. You will recall. the successful elections in July last year for a Constituent' Assembly to prepare Guatemala for a return to The Honorable Peter W. Rodino, Jr., Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary, House of Representatives. -2- civilian, democratically-elected government this year. In connection with these upcoming elections, the leadership of the Social Democratic Party -- a member of the Socialist International -- has accepted the Government's call for political exiles to return and to participate in the political process. Nevertheless, we recognize that some Guatemalans may have legitimate concerns about returning to their homeland at this time. Such persons who are in the United States already have available to them specific procedures for seeking relief. Our immigration laws provide procedures whereby an alien may lawfully secure the right to remain in the United States when he or she properly demonstrates fear of individual persecution in his or her homeland on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion. Also, in accordance with our international commitments, we do not forcefully deport a refugee to a country where the alien's life or freedom would be threatened on account of such factors. If EVD were granted to Guatemalans in the United States, it would benefit precisely those who are unable to qualify for asylum status or withholding of deportation. In other words, its beneficiaries would be those who do not have a legitimate fear of persecution in their homeland. We note that the U.N. High Commission for Refugees operates numerous refugee settlements for Guatemalan refugees in Southern Mexico, which most of the Guatemalans illegally in the U.S. have chosen to bypass. Guatemalans do not face persecution in Mexico. Nevertheless, some of them have decided not to avail themselves of this U.N. program specifically tailored for their needs, but rather have sought to enter the United States, where no such program operates. It is clear that the movement of these Guatemalans to United States reflects to a large extent the historical pattern of migration. This pattern shows that the United States is a magnet which attracts migration from around the world, and especially from Central America and Mexico because of the direct land bridge between this region and our country. Furthermore, if EVD were granted to Guatemalans, it would exacerbate this historical pattern and generally undermine the orderly implementation of our immigration policy. More specifically, considering the large number of Guatemalans who have elected to bypass refugee settlements in Mexico and enter the United States under present conditions, in which they risk deportation if they cannot establish their eligibility for asylum status, it is clear that the number of Guatemalans entering the United States could be expected to rise significantly if EVD status were available to them. This was our experience in 1979 when EVD status was granted to Nicaraguans at the end of the revolution in that country. -3- We will continue our careful review of applications by Guatemalans for asylum on a case-by-case basis, and monitor developments in the region. We believe that the procedures for a just consideration of asylum requests by Central Americans are in place, and that they are applied by our officers in a compassionate manner. In addition, we will maintain our longstanding practice of supporting refugee and resettlement programs, such as those in Mexico. No other country provides as much assistance, or as many settlement opportunities to refugees, as the United States. For the above stated reasons, we do not believe that it would be appropriate for the Department of State to recommend the extraordinary step of displacing current immigration laws by granting extended voluntary departure status to Guatemalans in this country. We therefore would not support H. Res. 107. The Office of Management and Budget advises that from the standpoint of the Administration's program there is no objection to the submission of this report. Sincerely, J.

Trey Assistant Director for Legislative Reference II 99TH CONGRESS 1ST SESSION S. J. RES. 142 To designate June 12, 1985, as, "AnneFrank Day". IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES MAY 23 (legislative day, APRIL 15), 1985 Mr. LEVIN introduced the following joint resolution; which was read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary JOINT RESOLUTION To designate June 12, 1985, as "Anne Frank Day". Whereas Anne Frank was a young girl who died in the Bergen- Belsen Nazi concentration camp; Whereas Anne Frank kept a diary, discovered after her death, that told the story of the concealment of her family from the Nazis; Whereas June 12, 1985, is the anniversary of the birth of Anne Frank; Whereas June 12, 1985, also is the occasion of an international opening of the exhibition, entitled "Anne Frank in the World 1929-1945", in Frankfurt in the Federal Republic of Germany, in Amsterdam in the Netherlands, and in New York City in the United States; Whereas the Anne Frank exhibit was organized by the Ameri- can Friends of the Anne Frank Center, a nonsectarian orga- 2 nization committed to preserving the memory of Anne Frank; Whereas the American Friends of the Anne Frank Center has- selected the American Forum on Religion and Politics to host the opening of the Anne Frank exhibit in New York; Whereas the American Forum on Religion and Politics, a group composed of business, political, and professional leaders and religious leaders from many faiths, is committed to preserv- ing the separation of church and State and to advancing social change by encouraging dialogue; and Whereas it is appropriate for the people of the Nation to reflect on the message of Anne Frank that in the face of evil it is possible to retain a belief in humanity: Now, therefore, be it 1 Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of 2 the United States of America in Congress assembled, That 3 June 12, 1985, is designated as "Anne Frank Day" and the 4 President of the United States is authorized and requested to 5 issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United 6 States to observe such day with appropriate ceremonies and 7 activities.

Gates\nUnited States Department of State\nWashington, D.C. 20520\nDear Mr. Chairman:\nThank you for your letter of March 13, 1985 enclosing H. Res.\n107, which expresses the sense of the House of Representatives\nwith regard to extended voluntary departure (EVD) status for\nGuatemalans, and requesting our views. Our comments on the\nresolution relate solely to whether the Secretary should\nrecommend extended voluntary departure status to the Attorney\nGeneral.\nThe Department does not believe it would be appropriate in\ncurrent circumstances to recommend extended voluntary departure\nstatus for Guatemalans in the United States for a variety of\nreasons concerning our foreign and immigration policies. EVD\ngrants have been rare because of the serious foreign and domestic\npolicy ramification of withholding the deportation of illegal\naliens. The Department invariably considers a number of factors\nin deciding whether to recommend a grant of EVD, for EVD may meet\ndifferent objectives in different cases. We would note that, in\nparticular, the extent of violence or civil unrest alone does not\ndetermine the Department's view toward the granting of EVD to\nnationals of a particular country.\nIt is true that serious human rights violations continue to\noccur in Guatemala. It is also clear, however, that significant\nimprovements have continued to occur during the past two years.\nOur view of this improving situation is contained in the Country\nReports on Human Rights Practices submitted to the Congress for\n1983 and 1984 in accordance with Sections 116(d) and 502B(b) of\nthe Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended. A separate\njudgment of the improving, although still serious, human rights\nsituation may be found in the report of Lord Colville, the\nU.N.-appointed Rapporteur for Guatemala. Lord Colville is a\nrespected human rights expert who visited Guatemala on numerous\noccasions in preparation of his report. In regard to the\ncontinuing problem of disappearances, he wrote that many cases\nmay really be voluntary efforts of individuals to disappear from\nsociety, while other cases may be criminally inspired.\nAnother fact which may not have been considered by the\nsponsors of the resolution is that increasing numbers of\nGuatemalan refugees are voluntarily returning to Guatemala. You\nwill recall. the successful elections in July last year for a\nConstituent' Assembly to prepare Guatemala for a return to\nThe Honorable\nPeter W. Rodino, Jr.,\nChairman, Committee on the Judiciary,\nHouse of Representatives.\n-2-\ncivilian, democratically-elected government this year. In\nconnection with these upcoming elections, the leadership of the\nSocial Democratic Party -- a member of the Socialist\nInternational -- has accepted the Government's call for political\nexiles to return and to participate in the political process.\nNevertheless, we recognize that some Guatemalans may have\nlegitimate concerns about returning to their homeland at this\ntime. Such persons who are in the United States already have\navailable to them specific procedures for seeking relief. Our\nimmigration laws provide procedures whereby an alien may lawfully\nsecure the right to remain in the United States when he or she\nproperly demonstrates fear of individual persecution in his or\nher homeland on account of race, religion, nationality,\nmembership in a particular social group, or political opinion.\nAlso, in accordance with our international commitments, we do not\nforcefully deport a refugee to a country where the alien's life\nor freedom would be threatened on account of such factors. If EVD\nwere granted to Guatemalans in the United States, it would\nbenefit precisely those who are unable to qualify for asylum\nstatus or withholding of deportation. In other words, its\nbeneficiaries would be those who do not have a legitimate fear of\npersecution in their homeland.\nWe note that the U.N. High Commission for Refugees operates\nnumerous refugee settlements for Guatemalan refugees in Southern\nMexico, which most of the Guatemalans illegally in the U.S. have\nchosen to bypass. Guatemalans do not face persecution in\nMexico. Nevertheless, some of them have decided not to avail\nthemselves of this U.N. program specifically tailored for their\nneeds, but rather have sought to enter the United States, where\nno such program operates. It is clear that the movement of these\nGuatemalans to United States reflects to a large extent the\nhistorical pattern of migration. This pattern shows that the\nUnited States is a magnet which attracts migration from around\nthe world, and especially from Central America and Mexico because\nof the direct land bridge between this region and our country.\nFurthermore, if EVD were granted to Guatemalans, it would\nexacerbate this historical pattern and generally undermine the\norderly implementation of our immigration policy. More\nspecifically, considering the large number of Guatemalans who\nhave elected to bypass refugee settlements in Mexico and enter\nthe United States under present conditions, in which they risk\ndeportation if they cannot establish their eligibility for asylum\nstatus, it is clear that the number of Guatemalans entering the\nUnited States could be expected to rise significantly if EVD\nstatus were available to them. This was our experience in 1979\nwhen EVD status was granted to Nicaraguans at the end of the\nrevolution in that country.\n-3-\nWe will continue our careful review of applications by\nGuatemalans for asylum on a case-by-case basis, and monitor\ndevelopments in the region. We believe that the procedures for a\njust consideration of asylum requests by Central Americans are in\nplace, and that they are applied by our officers in a\ncompassionate manner. In addition, we will maintain our\nlongstanding practice of supporting refugee and resettlement\nprograms, such as those in Mexico. No other country provides as\nmuch assistance, or as many settlement opportunities to refugees,\nas the United States.\nFor the above stated reasons, we do not believe that it\nwould be appropriate for the Department of State to recommend the\nextraordinary step of displacing current immigration laws by\ngranting extended voluntary departure status to Guatemalans in\nthis country. We therefore would not support H. Res. 107.\nThe Office of Management and Budget advises that from the\nstandpoint of the Administration's program there is no objection\nto the submission of this report.\nSincerely,\nJ.
