SUBJECTL Increased DoD Role in Drug Interdiction
1. On Thursday, May 12, 1988, during floor consideration
of S. 2355 (the Department of Defense (DoD) authorization bill
for fiscal year 1989) the Senate adopted an amendment which
would increase DoD's role in the interdiction of drugs coming
into the United States. A copy of the amendment as adopted is
attached for your information.
2. You will note it requires the President to designate a
"lead agency" which, the Senate recommends, be DoD. You will
also note it requires the President to submit within thirty
days of the enactment of the legislation a plan on how
resources, including intelligence resources, will be deployed.
3. The Senate continues floor consideration of the bill
with final passage expected in the very near future. The House

May 1988 and contained a similar provision. (See attached

(.0 Reimer By THE Pazsmswr.?Not later
than September 1, 1988, the President shall
submit a report to Congress containing leg-
islative proposals, including budgetary re-
quests, to enhance the capability of the De-
partment of Defense to perform the func-
tions described in this section.
Mr. WILSON. Mr. President, I rise
to urge adoption of the amendment
which I offer on behalf of myself and
SeMIMS NUNN, WARNER, DECoNcuu,
D'AmATo, GRAHAM, THURMOND, CHILES,
DOLE, SASSER, BOSC.HWITZ, DIXON,
BENTSEN, TRIBLE, DURENBERGER, and
GRAMM.
Mr. President, let me begin by giving
credit where It is due to those who
have participated in a strenuous and
extensive negotiation not only with
each other but with officials of the
Department of Defense and the De-
partment of Justice. We are offering
today legislation that gives the prom-
ise not of ending the tragedy of -drugs
In America but one that can make a
very significant improvement in our
ability to combat that problem.
I fully expect that later in this ses-
sion as part of a comprehensive effort
by the Congress we will submit legisla-
tion dealing with the necessity of cur-
tailing demand.
But let me just say, Mr. President,
that it is simplistic and misses a signif-
icant point to simply announce that
were there not the demand, not the
market for drugs in America, there
would be no problem.
There is necessarily a very definite
and a tragic relationship between the
flood of drugs that is available in this
Nation and the increasing addiction,
because that flood of drugs not only
feeds an appetite, but it is used to
create a market. Unhappily, tragically,
the market for these drugs are the
most vulnerable in our society?the
youngest, the poorest, the most sus-
ceptible. And they are found not just
in the inner city or in the suburbs, but
also in rural areas. They are found in
virtually every economic stratum of
our society. The one distinguishing
characteristic they have is that they
are young.
I will tell you that I am not terri-
bly?I am saddened?but not terribly
eager to spend time on someone who is
40 years old who has decided that he is
going to do something dangerous with
his health. I am concerned about chil-
dren-9, 10, 11 year old children.
What we are saying, Mr. President,
is that local law enforcement in this
Nation is overwhelmed. There is a
reason that street cops and policy
chiefs and sheriffs are the ones urging
that we do something to curtail
demand by education, by prevention,
by treatment and rehabilitation. It is
because they are in the business of
Interdicting the supply, trying to stop
it from ever reaching the market?the
market that exists on school grounds
and play grounds.
Mr. President, in order to make their
job far less dangerous, far less chal-
lenging, and far less expensive to the
taxpayer, we are bound and deter-
mined to do what we can to interdict
the supply of drugs beyond the bor-
ders of the United States. Why? For
the very simple reason that for every
dollar that we expend on interdiction
of supply beyond the borders of the
United States, we have better than
doubled the return for that same
dollar invested in local law enforce-
ment efforts which, Mr. President, is
no pejorative commentary on the local
law enforcement. To the contrary, it
Is, rather, a commentary on the over-
whelming odds that ate faced by
police departments and sheriff depart-
ments all across this land once they
are compelled to deal with this trage-
dy at retail.
What we are attempting to do here
is to deploy the assets of the military,
very considerable assets, in particular
having to do with a capability for sur-
veillance, for detection, for tracking of
maritime vessels and aircraft by which
the great majority of drug smuggling
into the United States is accom-
plished. And it is for that reason that
this amendment Is before us.
The amendment contains findings
by the Congress, specifically that the
transport of drugs and contraband is,
In fact, a menace to national security.
It is a serious threat, Mr. President.
The chairman of the Armed Services
Committee and the cosponsor of this
amendment spends a great deal of
time, as do I and some of the others on
this floor, worrying about other risks
to national security. But to use the el-
oquent phrase that he employed the
other day, we are dealing with nothing
less than chemical warfare against the
youth of this Nation, against the
future leadership of America.
So it is appropriate that Congress
find that the drug traffic constitutes a
threat to national security and that a
mission of the Armed Forces of the
United States shall be to assist Federal
law enforcement agencies responsible
for the Interdiction of those drugs en-
tering the United States by aircraft or
vessel.
This will provide guidelines to the
military departments. It will require
that the President submit to the Con-
gress a plan that will -best integrate
and employ the military and civilian
assets at our command. It expresses
the sense of the Senate that the De-
partment of Defense has unique capa-
bilities, experience and equipment to
participate in the kind of detection
that is necessary if we are to stop
drugs before they gain entrance to our
Nation, stop them beyond our borders.
It looks to the expertise which the
military holds by virtue of their expe-
rience and equipment in con-ha-tan_
S 5753
control and communications. It pro-
vides for airborne radar coverage, par-
ticularly of the southwestern border,
until such time as aerostats can be em-
ployed and put in place there because
of the special vulnerability of that
very porous, very mountainous stretch
of terrain_
? It requires that the military loan
adequate rotor and fixed wing aircraft
to engage in the pursuit and surveil-
lance of suspected aerial smugglers. It
permits the use of military pesonnel
who have been cross-sworn by the
Coast Guard to have the same law en-
forcement abilities beyond the borders
of the United States?not within, but
beyond?as may be necessary in order
to assist the Coast Guard and other
law enforcement activities primarily
employed in the interdiction of drugs
from achieving their mission.
Mr. President, there was great
debate as to whether or not we should
Involve the military. We have had that
debate before. Indeed, there are some
converts to the cause. At one time
some time ago, I thought it inappro-
priate that the military be involved,
that we should, rather simply, give
greater assets to the civilian law en-
forcement agencies charged with that
primary responsibility.
Mr. President, what has happened in
the interval is that the drug traffic
into the United States has reached
floodtide. The problem has reached
crisis proportions and it is necessary
for us to deal with it in a timely fash-
ion. We cannot ignore it. We cannot
Ignore the availability of the assets at
our command.
So let me simply give to the chair-
man of the Armed Services Committee
my sincere thanks for his cooperation,
and to Senator DEConcirn, Senator
D'AMATO, and Senator GRAHAM, who
were central to these negotiations,
who worked long and hard hours to-
convince the Department of Defense.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. The,
time of the Senator has expired.
Mr. WILSON. I ask unanimous con-
sent that my time be extended by 2
minutes.
Mr. DOLE. I cannot do that. We
have nine Senators, trying to divide 22
minutes between them.
Mr. WILSON. Very well. I will be
compelled to shorten my thanks to the
distinguished Senators who participat-
ed in this. I simply ask that their hard
work be rewarded, as it should be, and
more importantly, America's youth be
protected by an "aye" vote.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. Who
yields time?
Mr. DOLE. How much time remains?
The PRESIDING OtoleICER. There
are 21 minutes remaining.
Mr. DOLE. The Senator from Cali-
fornia took 9 minutes. We are going to
have a real problem here.
I yield 5 minutes to the Senator
fi cm New York, hoping he will not use
it ell.
