The chairman of the Subcommittee
on International Operations, Mr. MICA
and the ranking minority member, Ms.
Snows, will explain the diplomatic se-

detail. Therefore, I would like to take
this opportunity to review for our col-
leagues what action the Congress has
already taken to combat international
terrorism and to describe the new
measures in this legislation.
Over the past 3 years, the Committee
on Foreign Affairs has initiated, both
passive and active measures to combat
the growing threat of international
terrorism- These include:
The establishment of a bipartisan
staff task force to review diplomatic
security including host government co-
operation In protecting U.S. citizens
and embassies as well as to study the
foreign policy implications of interna-
tional terrorism;
The authorization of the antiterror.
ism assistance program which provides
training and equipment to some 40
friendly countries in such areas as up-
grading airport security, providing
courses in hostage negotiation, bomb
disposal techniques, and so forth;
The enactment of the necessary ena-
bling legislation to implement the
treaties on aircraft sabotage and hos-
tage taking;
The authorization of an emergency
supplemental embassy security en-
hancement program in the wake of
third Beirut bombing;
The creation of a rewards program
for information leading to the arrest
and conviction of international terror-
ists:
The adoption of a significant meas-
ure to enhance foreign airport security
which mandates unilateral, bilateral
and multilateral steps to upgrade secu-
rity at foreign international airports

must be notified before any funds may
be obligated for any given project. We
have also established procedures for
the treatment of cost overruns and the
promotion of contract efficiency.
Another aspect of this bill deserving
special consideration Is the commit-
tee's action regarding preference for
U.S. contractors. The committee feels
very strongly that Americans should
be called upon to build our embassies
abroad not only because It Is con-
cerned about the quality of construc-
tion and the sensitive nature of these
facilities, but also because it feels that
the way to make sure our missions
best reflect the principles for which
we stand is to have qualified Ameri-
cans, including minority contractors
build them. Therefore, we have includ-
ed very strong language in~title IV es-
tablishing a clear preference for U.S.
contractors. Section 402, also directs
the Department of State to allocate,
to the extent practicable, 10 percent of
the funds available for contracts with
American minority contractors. I feel
very strongly about this language
which was authored by any colleague,
Congressman DTMArs.Z. I urge the De-
partment to make every effort possible
to meet the requirements of this provi-
sion. The subcommittee expects the
Department will report on regular,
perhaps quarterly, basis regarding the
implementation of this provision.
Title 6 of this bill provides compen-
sation for victims of terrorism who are
U.S. Government employees and are
captured as a result of their relation-
ship with the U.S. Government. It pro-
vides certain medical and educational
benefits for hostages and their fami-
lies to help them weather the crisis.
This. title also provides for a cash
payment to hostages based on the du-
ration of their captivity. This is an
issue that the United States has failed
to address since the taking of Ameri-
Ican hostages in Iran 5 years ago. I
think that we can all support meas-
ures which will finally fulfill any re-
maining obligation to this group of
men and women who were held so long
in captivity, and which will provide as-
surance to any future victims of ter-
rorism that their families will be cared
for.
In conclusion. I am proud to stand
here today and present to this House
the fruit of this committee's long
effort. We have out together a com-
prehensive legislative proposal which
will, if enacted, at last provide the
U.S. Government the necessary tools
to follow our words with actions. I
urge the Members of this House to
join us in taking this first step to fight
terrorism wherever and however It ap-
pears.

Ms. SNOWE. Mr. Chairman and
members of the committee, this legis-
lation represents an unprecedented
effort by Congress to upgrade U.& se-
curity standards across the board as
Well as to establish a new security
ethic and apparatus within the De-
partment of State. The legislation
before us today also contains vital ntw
counterterrorism efforts, many of
them proposed by the Inman Panel on
Overseas Security and the Vice Presi-
dent's task force on combating terror-
ism.
The subcommittee was involved In
drafting two of the bills that form the
core of this legislation. One of course
is the Diplomatic Security Act and the
other is the Victims of Terrorism
Compensation Act. First, I would like
to commend the chairman of the Com-
mittee on Foreign Affairs and the
ranking amember for their leadership
in bringing this very important issue
to the floor today. I also express my
appreciation to the chairman of the
Subcommittee on International Oper-
ations for his cooperation In working
with the members of the committee
As always, and with all of the issues
that have come before the subcommit-
tee, he has always worked to accom-
modate the views and positions of the
members of the committee. I want to
express my appreciation for all of the
Members to the chairman of the sub-
committee for that cooperation.

Through consensus and true biparti-
sanships, our subcommittee has con-
ducted a considerable amount of work
on the important issues of diplomatic
security and counterterrorism. The
product of much of that work is con-
tained in this bill. Both the Diplomat-
ic Security Act and the Victims of Ter-
rorism Compensation Act were report-
ed out of the subcommittee and full
Foreign Affairs Committee unani-
mously.
The growing number of terrorist in-
cidents, particularly the many target-
ted at Americans working for the U.S.
Government abroad, make this legisla-
tioa urgently needed. During the past
two decades, terrorists have killed as
many U.S. diplomats as were killed In
the previous 180 years. In the past
decade alone. terrorists have attacked
U.S. officials or installations an aver-
age of once every 17 days.
??This -trend kas become even more
pronounced in the past $ years. Last
year, the State Department recorded
$12 incidents of International terror-
ism. 30 percent of which were aimed at
Americans and American interests,
with U.S. diplomats the most common
targets. This represented 200 more in-
cidents than the previous year, and
809 more than the year before that.
Our subcommittee held a number of
briefings and hearings qu this particu-
lar Issue. We heard t641lnony from a
variety of witnesses who are experts in
the field of international terrorism, all
of whom 4Qreluded unanimously that
terrolism.4r111 continue in the future
and. In fact, could escalate dramatical-
ly.
In view of this trend, the Secretary
of State assembled the Advisory Panel
on Overseas Security, headed by Adm.
Bobby Inman. The Inman Panel's
focus was not, only on the terrorist
threat against'U.S. personnel, but also
against U.S. missions abroad. The
Inman Panel found and concluded
that nearly half of our missions
abroad did not meet minimum security
standards. During the course of its in-
vestigation, it also examined electronic
penetration threats and came to the
shocking conclusion that a number of
our posts were rendered vulnerable.
One post, for example, was found to
share a common wall with an Eastern
European trading company.
The report made it very clear that
no matter how much money we spend.
we obviously could not provide a 100-
percent guarantee against such
threats. But it did outline a number of
measures that this Government could
take that could minimize the probabil-
ity of such threats and attacks against
our personnel and our embassies
abroad. Those measures are contained
in titles I through IV of of this legisla-
tion.
The measures called for by the
Inman Panel encompass more than
just a major diplomatic building pro-
gram. It also called for a major re-
alignment of toe security status
within the Department of State.
These measures are equally important
to the building program They call for
such measures as unproved training.
increased personnel, the reorganiza-
tion of the security structure within
the Department of State. a system for
personal accountability for security
lapses, and the creation of a Bureau of
Diplomatic Security).
The Department of State has al-
ready implemented many of the 91
recommendations proposed by the
Inman Panel. But this legislation here
today is required to further implement
the remainder of the recommenda-

tions. The Inman Panel recommenda.
tions encompass not only physical se-
curity, but human security. Even the
best built embassy cannot function
without properly trained personnel.
This legislation addresses the grow-
ing problem of terrorism in a compre-
hensive way. That was the value of
the Inman Panel report, so that we do
not constantly respond to the threat
of terrorism in a reactive and an Unco-
ordinated way. This legislation has
become a priority of the administra-
tion, it is a priority of the Foreign af-
fairs Committee, and I hope it will be
a priority not only of the House of
Representatives. but the entire Con-
gress.
If we delay action, there is no Ques-
tion that many Americans who work
on behalf of the U.S: Go?ernment will
remain at risk. Just a few weeks ago,
terrorists attempted to smuggle a car
bomb into the Embassy in Portugal.
Fortunately, that Embassy had been
designed and built in the last few
years and had the necessary security
standards In place. Alert security offi-
cials detected the bomb that had been
placed under an Embassy employee's
ear. The car was evacuated, the bomb
went off, but fortunately no damage
was done to the Embassy and not one
was hurt or killed.
The point is that the Embassy In
Portugal is an exception to the rule.
Had It been one of our missions or con-
sulates that has been recommended
for renovation. relocation or construc-
tion by the Inman Panel, there would
have been a serious loss of life and a
serious damage to property.
So, ladies and gentleman of the com-
mittee, this legislation is vital in all re-
spects. It is an ambitious program, but
one that has to be taken, not only be-
cause It Is important to this country,
but I think that we have to make a
moral commitment and take responsi-
bility for the people who work for the
United States.
I would like to comment on one
other provision In this legislation, and
that is title VIII, the Victims of Ter-
rorism Compensation Act, which pro-
vides for education and medical bene-
fits, and compensation to future hos-
tages, as well as to hostage family
members. It is based on the provisions
In the Hostage Relief Act of 1980 that
expired in 1983. This title will fill a se-
rious void in our ability to combat and
cope with 'international terrorism, and
to minimize and alleviate the hard-
ships on the family members, as well
as the hostages. If there is anything
we learned from the Iranian hostage
crisis, it is that first and foremost in
the minds of those hostages was con-
cern for the health, welfare and safety
of their family. This legislation would
help them to cope better with a peril-
ous situation and give them the kind
of peace of mind they deserve during
such an ordeal.
Title VIII not only provides compen.
sation for future hostages, but it pro-
vides retroactively compensation for
the hostages -of the Iranian crisis.
They still have not received any Com-
pensation. and yet 5 years has passed.
It is long overdue. It is grossly over-
due. And It is something that this C64-
areas has to address here and now.
I might also mention that the 11-
tiers agreement, which arranged the
release of our hostages, denied these
hostages the right to sue In court and
to seek redress. So, at the minimum,
we as a country have an obligation to,
provide the compensation that. as I
said earlier, is long overdue.
We have a unique opportunity here
today, ladies and gentlemen, to" take
strong action against international ter-
rorism. I urge this body to approve
overwhelmingly the legislation before
us. We will not regret having done it.
Ms. SNOWE. I thank the gentleman
for yielding.
Mr. YOUNG of Florida. Mr. Chair-
man, will the gentlewoman yield?
Ms. SNOWE. I yield to the gentle-
man from Florida.
(Mr. YOUNG of Florida asked and
was given permission to revise and
extend his remarks.)
Mr. YOUNG of Florida. I thank the
gentlewoman for yielding.
Mr. Chairman, I rise in support of H.R. 4151,
the Omnibus Diplomatic Security and Anti-Ter-
rorism Act of 1988.
My colleagues froimFbrida DANTE FASCELL,
the distinguished chairman of the Foreign Af-
fairs Committee, and DAN MICA, the chairman
of the International Operations Subcommittee,
and my colleagues from Michigan Maine, BILL
BROOMFIELD and OLYMPIA SNOWE, the rank-
ing minority members of the committee and
subcommittee, are to be commended for their
continuing concern and diligence to combat
the increasing threat from international terror-
ists.
This bill is a sobering reminder of the threat
terrorists pose to the security of our Nation. It
provides for almost $3 billion in new budget
authority over the next 6 years to enhance the
security of our embassies and diplomatic mis-
sions overseas. We have had no choice but to
assume a bunker mentality to protect Ameri-
can officials abroad.
During the past decade, terrorists have at-
tacked U.S. officials or installations on the av-
erage of once every 17 days. Last year alone,
173 international terrorists incidents were di-
rected at American Individuals or facilities
abroad, resulting In the death of 23 Americans
and injuries to more than 150.
Although the United States remains the
prime target of international terrorists, our
allies we equally as vulnerable. Overall, there
were 812 International terrorist incidents last
year, claiming 926 lives and resulting In
almost 1,300 injuries. Our Nation obviously
cannot stand alone in the battle against terror-
ism.
In June 1984, 1 introduced legislation urging
the President to organize an international con-
vention to combat terrorism and to seek Inter-
national agreements on the punishment and
extradition of terrorists and their accomplices.
I also urged increased cooperation among our
allies In sharing intelligence Information about
terrorist organizations and In d scussing coun-
terterrorism strategy and techniques. The For-
eign Affairs Committee Included my legislation
in a broader terrorism bin, which Congress ap-
proved and was signed into law by President
Reagan in Octpber 1984.
Vice President Bush's task force on terror-
ism recently endorsed my proposal, saying in
his report released last month that, "Interna-
tional cooperation is crucial to long-term de-
terrence of terrorism."
There Is a growing consensus in support of
my effort to organize an international oonven-
lion or working group on terrorism and I'm
confident we are closer to the formation of
each an organization. The legislation we con-
sider today reafftrmg the committee's belief in
such a concept
This legislation directs the President to es-
tablish an international coordinating commit-
tee, whose sole focus would be the problems
and responses to int e ~nal terrorism. It
also seeks the help of'atties in protecting
Innocent Americans traveling abroad.
During the past 5 years, there have been
more than '$000 terrorist incidents worldwide,
claiming b.ndreds of lives. cliusing thousands
of injuries, and billions of dollars in damages.
No nation is immune to the threat
Our allies are looking .to the United States
for the leadership to organize an international
working group to reduce the threat from ter-
rorism. We must step forward and decisively
take the lead in this effort so that we can at
last begin an organized campaign to capture
and prosecute terrorists. It's time that we put
the terrorists and would-be terrorists of the
world on notice that they will no longer be al-
lowed to roam the world freely and that their
crimes against humanity will no longer go un-
punished.
Mr. FASCELL Mr. Chairman. I
yield 3 minutes to the distinguished
gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr.
YATaort], chairman of the Human
Rights and International Organization
Subcommittee.
Mr. YATRON. Mr. Chairman, I
thank the gentleman from Florida for
yielding me this time.
Mr. Chairman, I rise In strong sup-
port of the omnibus diplomatic securi-
ty and antiterrorism bill.
I want to commend the chairman of
the Foreign Affairs Committee, Mr.
FASCELL, the ranking minority
member, Mr. BROOttn'IELD, and in par-
ticular the chairman and ranking mi-
nority member of the International
Operations Subcommittee, Mr. MICA
and Ms. SNOWS, for the outstanding
work they have done on this legisla-
tion. Their leadership has resulted in a
bipartisan strategy to combat one of
the greatest threats to the American
people: international terrorism.
Mr. Chairman, this legislation will
strengthen and enhance the Presi-
dent's ability to confront the menace
of terrorism in a realistic way by using
legal instruments and international
law. This is a comprehensive bill
which includes among its many impor-
tant provisions authority to deal with
International nuclear terrorism. U.S.
port security, as well as procedures to
combat narcotics-related terrorism.
This commitment is reinforced with a
much-needed diplomatic security pack-

March 18, 1986 . CONGRESSIONAL RECORD -.HOUSE --
age designed to provide protection for
Americans serving abroad.
There has been a great deal of con-
cern expressed throughout the coun-
try that the United States does not
have an effective approach to combat
International terrorism. While It
would be unrealistic to expect the
United States to totally eliminate this
menace, the Congress and the admin-
istration have devoted coinsiderable
time and effort to establishing a co-
herent anti-terrorism policy, which is
.embodied in this legislation.
This bill reflects the' President's
commitment of combating terrorism.
It will not eradicate the threat but It
will serve as an effective deterrent.
The United States must be prepared
to provide security against terrorism
for its own people. Clearly, no other
nation can be expected to assume this
responsibility.
Mr. Chairman, in light of budget
constraints many of our colleagues
have reservations about the diplomatic
security package. I share those views.
and I am confident that the appropri-
ate steps have been taken to preclude
cost overruns and fiscal mismanage-
ment. The committee has gone to
great lengths to reprioritize the over
250 projects which require security Im-
provements to reflect the concerns
many of us have about cost effective-
ness. Further, this legislation requires
the Secretary of State to-provide the
appropriate congressional committees
with detailed justifications for every
program and project.
Mr. Chairman, if we are serious
about protecting our people against
the scourge of terrorism, we must
match our words with deeds and pro-
vide the President with the necessary
resources and authority he needs to
carry out this vitally important task.
In conclusion, this legislation can
serve as a springboard toward greater
international cooperation in combat-
ing a problem that threatens the
future stability and welfare of every
nation. I strongly urge my colleagues
to support this bill.

Mr. BROOMFIELD. Mr. Chairman,
I yield 5 minutes to the gentleman
from New York [Mr. Gn.mAxl, a senior
member of the minority.
(Mr. GILMAN asked and was given
permission to revise and extend his re-
marks.)
Mr. GILMAN. Mr. Chairman, ladies
and gentlemen of the committee. I am
pleased to rise in strong support of
H.R. 4151. The Omnibus Diplomatic
Security and Anti-Terrorism Act of
1986. This bill is a monumental step
forward in the protection of American
citizens traveling or working abroad,
and will ultimately lead to increased
security for them at home, as well.
Over the past several years, the Con-
gress has become more and more
aware of the threat posed by interna-
tional terrorism. The House has not
shirked its duty to do everything in its
power to give our executive branch ef-
fective weapons in the fight against
terrorism. Everyone should under-
stand that our fight against terrorism
Is not one dimensional. In this bill: as
in previous legislation, we give empha-
sis both to unilateral and multination-
al approaches to the problem. As we
struggle to understand the origins of
terrorism, we realize that in many
cases it results from the frustration of
political aspirations which may in
some cases be legitimate, or- with
-which we can sympathise. But we
must demonstrate our unshakable re-
solve to combat those who act out
their frustrations by killing Innocent
men, women, and children, Or by
taking up arms against democratic
governments and institutions. - -
This legislation was carefully crafted
under the leadership of the distin-
guished chairman of our Foreign Af-
fairs Committee, the gentleman from
.Florida [Mr. Fsacar.,] and the ranking
minority member, the gentleman from
Michigan [Mr. BROOHrzazo]. Major
portions of this legislation-most nota-
bly the deplomatic security and hos-
tage relief provisions-were drafted
under the guidance of the gentleman
from Florida (Mr. MICA) and the gen-
tlelady from Maine [Ms. Sxows], chair-
man and ranking minority member. re-
spectively, of th8. Subcommittee on
International Operations. Some of the
provisions were contributed by other
committees, such as the Committee on
Post Office and Civil Service, on which
I also serve, which first acted on the
hostage relief provisions, and which
endorses this legislation. Other com-
mittees cooperating in this venture
were thg Committee on Merchant
Marine and Fisheries and the Commit-
tee on the Judiciary. We thank them
for their cooperation in this venture.
The bill begins with the authoriza-
tion of a massive construction pro-
gram to protect Americans serving
their country abroad in the diplomatic
and consular services and in the many
other agencies which are housed in
American missions abroad. It will
create a new Bureau of Diplomatic Se-
curity, to strengthen 254 U.S. facilities
overseas. A new Bureau of Diplomatic
Security is created to centralize re-
sponsibility for security matters
within the State Department., When
security-related incidents occur
abroad, boards of inquiry will examine
our response and determine if any ad-
ditional action or precautions are re-
quired.
The bill contains provisions for deal-
ing with difficult problem of increas-
ing security at foreign seaports, so
that it will be harder to carry out ter-
rorist attacks on Americans or others
at sea. These provisions are modeled
after the recently passed measure de-
signed to beef up security at foreign
airports, and Include assessments of
security at foreign seaports, backed up
by the threat that travel advisories
will be issued in the absence of
progress.
H 1241
Provisions aimed at dealing with the
problem of nuclear terrorism are also
featured in the bill are aimed mainly
at stimulating international coopera-
tion to deal with the awsome threat to
civilization posed by the. possibility
that a Qadhafi or a Khomeini could
'-get their hands on a nuclear device.
Americans traveling abroad often
feel that they are threatened because
their place of birth appears on their
passports. We have included a provi-
sion aimed at stimulating internation-
al agreement on the deletion of this
information as an item on most pass-
port; we also state in our committee
report that we expect the Secretary of
State to use his existing authority to
f place of birth
issue passports with
Information. - f
The bill at long last provides an ade-
quate settlement for the hostages
taken at' ur Embassy in Teheran, who
have not, until this da3r.-received their
final compensation; it establishes a
uniform, compassionate, and reasona-
ble appropriate system for aid to any
of our employees who may be taken
hostage In the future. as well as for
their families.
Finally, Mr. Chairman, I would like
to turn to the provisions of title V of
the bill. These provisions are especial-
ly important ones because they relate
directly to actions which can be taken
by our own State Department to help
combat terrorism.
Section 501 provides for the estab-
lishment of a list of most-wanted
international terrorists.
Section 502 increases the amount of
rewards which may be offered for the
capture of terrorists either on the list
of most-wanted terrorists, or who are
otherwise infamous.
Section 503 relates to rewards for in-
formation relating to international
narcoterrorism and drug trafficking.
The phenomenon of narcoterrorlsm is
a relatively new one, but It is highly
destructive. It involves the use of ter-
roristic tactics against drug enforce-
ment and diplomatic personnel-a new
escalation in the criminality of naroc-
tics traffickers.
The section is not intended to set up
a program competing with the those
under the jurisdiction of the DEA.
Rather, the section is intended to pro-
vide additional weapons-in the form
of rewards for the capture of the most
major, infamous traffickers-which we
hope will ordinarily be offered in coop-
eration with foreign countries. The
provision specifies that in the case of
rewards for the apprehension of nar-
cotics traffickers, the Secretary of
State is to act In consultation with the
Attorney General. The section also
provides for the offering of rewards
for the capture or thwarting of actions
directed against American personnel,
or those who assist them abroad, or
their families. We must do everything
In our power to protect those individ-
uals who risk their lives to keep our
streets free of narcotics.

That is what I am asking for in the
amendment that I will offer. It in no
way impacts on the authorization
process. It keeps the authorization
process in place. It simply says, "Don't
go to an entitlement now. Make the
money a part of the regular appropria-
tion process. Say to as that we are
toing to leave to come up with the
money as a part of our effort to get to
a balanced budget." That is all my
amendment will do. It will keep the
authorization program established in
this bill absolutely in place. It will
simply set up a different mechanism
for payment that says that Congress
ought to vote the money before we
pay the money and it seems to me In
light of the budget problems this
country faces, voting the money
before we pay the money makes pretty
good sense.

Worn], the chairman of the African
Subcommittee.
Mr. WOLPE. Mr. Chairman, I thank
the gentleman for yielding.
I want to pay tribute to both the dis-
tdnguished chairman. the gentleman
from Florida [Mr. Fasczcw], and also
to the ranking member, the gentleman
from Michigan [Mr. Bxoownzt.nl, and
to the gentleman from Florida [Mr.
Md.ICA], and the gentlewoman from
Maine [Ms. Srowal, the ranking
member of the subcommittee, for de-
veloping this excellent legislative
product.
I would like to take lust a moment to
draw the attention of my colleagues to
title VI of the omnibus antiterrorism
legislation that we are now consider-
tng. Title VI embodies legislation that
the gentleman from Maryland [Mr.
BARNES] and I had introduced, and fo-
cuses specifically on actions to prevent
or deter ads of international nuclear
terrorism. As many of my colleagues
know, this is an issue I have been ex-
tremely concerned about for several
years and therefore I am particularly
delighted to see our committee and
this body assert needed leadership on
what is surely one of the most serious
of all pending threats to our national
security-the prospect of terrorists
going nuclear.
There may be some who consider
this a farfetched or unlikely scenario.
But to those individuals, I say "please
think again." Anybody who believes
that terrorists cannot aquire the tech-
nical information necessary to build a
nuclear weapon has not thumbed
through a recent encyclopedia or basic
college physics text. And surely events
of the past several years leave no
doubt that terrorist fanatics clearly
possess sufficient ruthlessness and
.cunning to carry off a nuclear attack.
The fact is that it only takes three
things to construct a nuclear weapon:
First, the technological know-how;
second, as little as 20 pounds of a nu-
clear explosive material; and third, a
political dseblon to put the first two
together.
Title 6 provides for very modest and
minimal steps that must be taken if we
hope to stave off the day when terror-
ists groups squire a nuclear explosiv6:
Obviously. this effort will require ex-
tenstre international cooperation, to
title 6 directs the President to seek
universal adherence to the Convention
on the Physical Security of Nuclear
Material. Further. it asks the Presi-
dent to work with our allies and other
countries to minimize the amount of
nuclear explosive material in Interna-
tional transit and to Insure the most
stringent of security eondltlons' for
any such shipments. With incidents of
international terrorism so clearly on
the rise. these efforts to keep nuclear'
weapons grade material out of circular
tion and out of the hands of terrorist
groups takes on an added urgency-
This title also directs the President to
seek agreement within the U.N. Secu-
rity Council on an effective interna-
tional strategy to deter nations or sub-
national groups from engaging In acts
of nuclear terrorism and to respond on
a coordinated. International basis
should such a catastrophe occur. The
final provision I would like to high-
light seeks to strengthen the role of
the Department of Defense in assur-
Ing that the physical protection stand-
ards applied to all- exports or subse-
giient transfers of special nuclear ma-
terial are fully adequate to deter theft,
sabotage, or any other act of terrorism
which would result In the diversion of
that material. We cannot afford to
settle for any lesser standard when the
stakes are so terribly high.
Mr. BROOMFIEID. Mr. Chairman,
I yield myself such time as I may con-
sume.
Mr. Chairman, before I reserve the
balance of my time. I want to indicate
that the Vice President sent me a
letter where he headed up the Presi-
dent's committee on combating terror-
ism and he Indicated today In a letter
to me that he wanted me to know how
much he appreciated our committee's
prompt and bipartisan action on the
legislative recommendation of the Vice
President's Task Force on Combating
Terrorism -
He said:
Inasmuch as this report was publicly re-
leased an March 6, 1.088. it Is particularly
gratifying to see such Quick action. I know
you have worked closely with the chairman
on this legislation. It has been truly a bipar-
tisan effort that reflects close cooperation
and this will become a major part of our
overall program to combat international ter-
rorism.

work.

time. I want to commend his leader-

This Is an enormously important
piece of icgialation.
I want to pick up on the comments
of my friend. the gentleman from
Michigan (Mr. Wows), with whom I
had the privilege of working and offer-
ing some of the language with respect
to nuclear terrorism.
If you think about it for a minute,
given the amount oL~ajtCapons grade
material that existsitn the world and
the shipments of It that take place
constantly around the world. it is
almost imitable that at. some point
some terrorist or terrorist organization
will obtain enough of that material to
put together a nuclear weapon and
threaten etvilt cotton with the ultimate
terrorism, and that is the threat of a
nuclear weapon being exploded in an
urban area. -
It is almost. tnevitabte that that will
happen unless we get very tough
about the way we deal with weapons
grade materials and unless we get very
tough in the standards that we estab-
lish for the transfer of those materi-
als.
If it ever happens, If 1 year from
now or 10 years from now or 30 years
from now some terrorist gets hold of a
nuclear weapon. everyone in the world
is going to point at us, the people who
were in office when the decisions were
made about how these materials are
transported and how they are used,
and say. "How come you didn't do ev-
erything humanly possible to make
sure that this couldn't happen. that a
terrorist organization or a terrorist
state could not get access to nuclear
weapons?"
Well, we have the opportunity today
to take some very modest steps. Quite
frankly, a number of us wanted to do
more to make our procedures even
stronger with respect to the handling
of weapons grade materials;- but at
least this legislation takes some first
steps and assures that we are moving
In the right direction toward doing
what needs to be done to make it im-
possible'for terrorists to get hold of
nuclear material, plutonium and other
weapons grade material, that prten-
tially someday could threaten the civ-
Ilized world with the ultimate danger,
nuclear terrorism.
I strongly urge bipartisan support
for this legislation. It is terribly impor-
tant that we begin the effort of insur-
ing that that day will never come.

Mr. BIAGGI. I thank the gentleman
for yielding this time to me.
Mr. Chairman, I rise in support of
H.R. 4418, the Omnibus Diplomatic
Security and Anti-Terrorism Act of
1986. As we all know, the incidence of
terrorist acts hrri?eached epidemic
proportions, and most often, it is the
United States and its citizens who are
the prietary targets..
I was very pleased to work with the
Foreign Affairs Committee in develop-
ing title IX of this bill on maritime se-
curity and to cosponsor the bill as re-
ported by that committee. The hijack-
ing of the Italian cruise liner Achille
Lauro and the subsequent murder by
the terrorists of Leon Klinghoffer, an
American citizen, highlighted the fact
that the maritime environment is also
vulnerable to terrorist attack.
The Merchant Marine Subcommit-
tee, which I chair, has been actively
involved in investigating maritime se-
curity. Subsequent to the Achilie
Lauro hijacking, on October 22, 1985,
the subcommitte.held a hearing on se-
curity in U.S. ports and on vessels
using U.S. ports. This hearing was fol-
lowed by field investigation of security
at the Port of Miami and Port Ever-
glades. FL, in November 1985. These
ports handle the majority of cruise
ship operations in the United States.
Extensive discussions.were held with
several Government agencies, includ-
ing the Coast Guard, which is respon.
sible for port and vessel safety, and
the Federal Bureau of Investigation,
which is responsible for domestic secu-
rity in general. The subcommittee also
met with many representatives of the
cruise ship companies operating out of
U.S. ports.
These companies, as well as officials
from the ports, reported on the securi-
ty measures already in place and on
additional measures being tested and
implemented in the aftermath of the
AchiUe Lauro hijacking. Security
measures being tested or implemented
Include: First, further restricting

am really proud to be part of this
effort. I commend all of those who
have taken part.
Mr. MINETA. Mr. Chairman, I rise In support
of H.R. 4151, the Omnibus Diplomatic Security
and Anti-Terrorism Act. When taken together
with title V of the International Security and
Development Act of 1985, the measure before
us today provides an important corollary to
our recent legislative efforts to combat avia-
tion terrorism. As was the case with last
year's bill, the distinguished chairman of the
Foreign Affairs Committee and his committee
members have made an immeasurable contri-
bution to this omnibus antiterrorism bill.
The airport security measure signed into law
on August 8. 1985, specifically requires the
U.S. Secretary of Transportation to conduct
periodic assessments of the effectiveness of
security measures at foreign airports receiving
international air service from the United
States, using, at a minimum, internationally ac-
cepted standards.
If security deficiencies oars found and not
remedied within 90 days, the traveling public
must be notified by DOT and by the airlines.
Furthermore, in situations where a threat
exists to the safety and security of passengers
and flight crew members, the Secretary of
Transportation is explicitly authorized to imme-
diately suspend air service from that foreign
airport to the United States.
Oversight hearings on DOT's implementa-
tion of our foreign airport security provisions
were held just last month by the House For-
eign Affairs Committee. At that time, 50 for-
eign airports had been evaluated against
ICAO's standards and found to comply. Reas-
sessments of these airports will be made
three to six times a year.
In addition to sanctions or suspension of
service, our recent enactment directs our
Government to work through ICAO and other
international negotiations to strengthen securi-
ty standards and to improve enforcement of
these standards. It also authorizes $5 million
In fiscal year 1986 from the aviation trust fund
for research and development of improved de-
vices and techniques for detecting weapons
and explosives. A total of $15 million was ap-
propriated for this purpose in the fiscal year
1986 CR.
Today, U.S. scheduled airlines will transport
more than 1 million passengers on 15,000
daily flights covering almost 400 airports in the
United States and about 100 other points
abroad. Since the inception of our current do-
mestic airline passenger screening procedures
in 1973, over 6 billion persons have been
screened and almost 8 billion carry-on items
have been inspected. These screening and in-
spection procedures have detected over
33,000 firearms with almost 14.000 associated
arrests. Since late June, regulatory actions by
the DOT have improved baggage and cargo
inspections and security, expanded U.S. flight
crew security training and increased the
number of air marshals.
In closing, let me also briefly mention our
hostages who are still being held in Lebanon.
Some of these Americans have been held
more than 1 year now, and public interest in
their plight has risen and fallen over that time.
We must maintain our high level of concern
and interest. We must never forget that when
we discuss laws and regulations about tenor-
ism that the lives of many individuals are at
stake; and that among. those individuals are
our hostages William Buckley, Peter KMbum,
Father Lawrence Jenco, Terry Anderson,
David Jacobson, Thomas Sutedand, and Alec.
Collett.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Mr. HOWARD. Mr. Chairman, as a cospon-
sor of H.R. 4151, 1 rise In support of thislegis-
lation which will provide for a significant in-
crease in security for U.S. diplomatic persof4.
net, facilities, and operations, and for other
purposes. Although the House Committee on
Public Works and Transportation has limited
jurisdiction over matters contained In H.R.
4151, we do have exclusive jurisdiction over
section 409 of the bill retailing to protection of
foreign missions in the Washington.,DC, met-
ropolitan area, as well as foreign missions in
the United States where there are located 20
or more missions and when such )lrotective
need arises In association with a permanent
mission to an international organization. -
Mr. Chairman, security for foreign. missions
in the United States is vital, through reciproci-
y, in obtaining needed security for American
missions around the world, and is provided
under two statutory programs. The first, a title
III program for diplomatic protection In Wash-
ington, DC, Is carried out by the U.S. Secret
Service Uniformed Division and diplomatic
protection with missions associated with the
United Nations is carried out by the State De-
partment's Diplomatic Security Service. The
second is the Foreign Missions Act; which
generally authorizes protective services for all
diplomatic mission% by the Secretary of State
in order to meet current protective needs,
except that the Secretary may not provide any
protective services for which authority exists
to provide such services under sections
202(7) and 208 of title 111.
Mr. Chairman, title III of the United States
Code directs the U.S. Secret Service Uni-
formed Division, subject to the supervision of
the Secretary of the Treasury, to provide pro-
tection for the following: First, the White
House in the District of Columbia; second, any
building in which Presidential offices are locat-
ed; third, the President and members of his
immediate family; fourth, foreign diplomatic
missions located in the metropolitan area of
the District of Columbia; fifth, the temporary
official residence of the Vice President and
grounds in the District of Columbia; sixth, the
Vice President and members of his immediate
family; seventh, foreign diplomatic missions lo-
cated in metropolitan areas-other than the
District of Columbia-in the United States
where there are located 20 or more such mis-
sions headed by full-time officers, except that
such protection shall be provided only, first,
on the basis of extraordinary protective need;
second, upon request of the affected metro-
politan area; and third, when the extraordinary

eighth, foreign diplomatic missions located in
such areas In the United States, its territories
and possessions, as the President, on a case-
by-case basis, may direct.
In carrying out functions of providing securi-
ty for foreign diplomatic missions located in
metropolitan areas-other than the District of
Columbia-the Secretary of Treasury may uti-
lize, with their consent, on a reimbursable
basis, the services, personnel, equipment, and
facilities of State and local governments, and
Is. authorized to reimburse such State and
local governments for the utilization of such
aefvlces. personnel, equipment, and facilities.
Zhe -authority of this subsection may be trans-
ferred by the President to the Secretary of
State. To carry out this provision, there is au-
thorized to be appropriated on an annual
basis $7 million for the payment of reimburse-
ment obligations entered into for security
measures.
To date, the U.S. SeCret Service has resist
ed 'any attempts by the State Department to
provide protective services outside of Wash-
ington, DC. Further, E bctitive Order 12478 of
May 23, 1984 transferred authority to the Sec-
retary of the State to provide protective serv-
ices under title III when associated with an
intera$dnal organization. or on a case-by-
case basis as the President may direct. The
U.S. Secret Service Uniformed Division re-
tained authority to provide protective services
in the Washington, metropolitan area.
In 1975, the House Committee on Foreign
Affairs amended the Foreign Missions Act
whereby the ? State Department was granted
authority to provide extraordinary protective
services for foreign missions directly, by con-
tract, or through State or local authorities to
the extent deemed necessary by the Secre-
tary in carrying out the act, however, such
services shall not be provided if such authority
exists under title Ill. There is authorized to be
appropriated $2.5 million annually to carry out
the purposes of the act.
Section 409 of H.R. 4151 will bolster State
Department antiterrorism programs that pro-
vide security protection for the United Nations
and United Nations related activities now car-
ried out under title Ill by the Department of
State, pursuant to Executive Order 12478,
dated May 23, 1984. This section would sig-
nificantly strengthen the range of authorities
available for U.N. protection under title Ill by
including the protective provisions now avail-
able through the Foreign Mission Act. This
would include, among other provisions, the
authority to effect the location of foreign mis-
sions based on security concerns, the ability
to provide protection for activities that occur
away from but are related to U.N. mission ac-
tivities, provide protection against hostile ac-
tivities that occur near the U.N. headquarters,
allow the Attorney General to engage the judi-
cial process on behalf of foreign missions and
other important and useful authorities. This
section will accomplish these goals without
any increase in funds.
To conclude, the decision to provide protec-
tive services and the funding available there-
fore are both determined under title Ill, and
provisions of the Foreign Mission Act may be
used in support thereof.
Mr. Chairman, I urge adoption of H.R. 4151.
Mr. RODINO. Mr. Chairman, I rise in support
of this bill and Commend the distinguished
