Res. 95](/us/bill/100/sconres/95).] Whereas at least 36,000 children in the United States are legally free for adoption and are living in foster care waiting for a permanent home; Whereas many of the children are physically, mentally, and emotionally disabled; Whereas some insurers deny health insurance to a disabled adopted child on the basis that the disability of the child is a preexisting condition; Whereas the actions of the insurers impose a significant barrier to the adoption of children with disabilities because few prospective adoptive parents can afford to take the risk of adopting a child who will not be covered by health insurance; Whereas under State law adoption severs the legal ties between the adopted child and the adopted child’s birth parents, and creates a legal relationship with the adoptive parents; Whereas in every State, State law has established that an adopted child has the same legal status as a biological child; Whereas many insurers cover a biological child with the same disability born to the adoptive parents; Whereas by denying health insurance coverage to disabled adopted children, insurers are discriminating against adopted children and establishing a policy contrary to State law; and Whereas the barriers to adoption that deny children a permanent home and prevent couples and single individuals from establishing families should be eliminated: Now, therefore, be it *Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring)*, That it is the sense of Congress that Congress—
(1)opposes discrimination in health insurance against adopted children;
(2)urges insurers to treat all adopted children identically to newly born biological children;
(3)urges State legislatures to encourage health insurers to cover adopted children of the insured, subscriber, or enrollee on the same basis as other dependents, with such coverage to be effective from the date of placement for purpose of adoption. Sec. 2. The Secretary of the Senate shall transmit a copy of this concurrent resolution to—
(1)an appropriate official of the legislature of each State, and
(2)an appropriate official of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. Agreed to July 26, 1988. S. Con.

(1)continues to hold the Government of Iran responsible for upholding the rights of all its nationals, including Baha’is, in a manner consistent with that Government’s obligations under international agreements guaranteeing the civil and political rights of its citizens;
(2)welcomes reports of the recent release of Baha’is from prisons in Iran and takes note of the decline in the numbers of Baha’is and others executed in that country;
(3)expresses the hope that these developments may indicate a greater willingness on the part of the Government of Iran to act in a manner consistent with its obligations under the various international agreements to which it is a party;
(4)urges the Government of Iran to restore fully the rights guaranteed by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, including freedom of thought, conscience and religion, education, and equal protection of the law; and
(5)calls upon the President—
(A)to continue to observe and report on developments affecting the Baha’i minority in Iran, and to monitor developments affecting Baha’is in countries in which their rights might be abridged on account of their religious beliefs;
(B)to cooperate with other governments in continuing to make appeals to the Government of Iran concerning the situation of the Baha’is;
(C)to initiate and support efforts in the United Nations and its agencies on behalf of measures to promote the protection of the religious rights of Baha’is; and
(D)to provide, and to urge others to provide, for refugee and humanitarian assistance for those Baha’is who flee their homelands for reasons of religious repression. Sec. 2.

Res. 134](/us/bill/100/hconres/134).] Whereas, voter turnout in the United States has gone steadily down since 1876 until today; Whereas, nearly 50 percent of eligible citizens do not vote in presidential elections, over 60 percent do not vote in congressional elections, and more than 70 percent do not vote in most local elections; Whereas, 84 percent of young Americans between the ages of 18 and 24 did not vote in the 1986 election, and nonvoting—especially by our young people—undermines the validity of the election man date and the future of our democratic process; Whereas, in Costa Rica, Central America’s oldest and most stable democracy, 80–90 percent of that country’s voting age population regularly turns out for elections—which the former United States ambassador to Costa Rica has described as a “festival of democracy”; Whereas, for more than 40 years Costa Rican children have been permitted to accompany their parents and grandparents to the polls, and for a number of years children have been allowed to cast mock ballots at their schools, the results of this youth “election” being separately counted and publicized; Whereas, observers credit the high voter turnout in Costa Rican elections in large part to this early exposure of youth to the electoral process, an experience which, they say, assures that democracy in Costa Rica will be safe come the day when these children are old enough for their votes to count; Whereas, the State of Arizona this year is pioneering an exciting and promising pilot program in American democracy—the first of its kind in the Nation—by adapting and modifying the Costa Rican experience to our electoral system; Whereas, the Arizona experiment—called Kids Voting—is enthusiastically supported by Arizona business, education, press and government leaders, and citizen volunteers, the Arizona legislature passed overwhelmingly, and Governor Rose Mofford signed into law, legislation permitting children to enter the State’s official polling places with their parents and to vote in a simulated general election on November 8, the results to be tabulated and publicized; Whereas, some 28,000 children in grades 3 through 12 in 6 Arizona school districts and 2 private schools currently are undergoing a special curriculum financed by a private sector grant to prepare them for November 8 including, in the higher grades, instruction on the rights and responsibilities of informed voters, and information on the candidates, offices, and platforms, and on election procedures generally; Whereas, promoters of Kids Voting describe this historic experiment as “a direct assault on voter apathy" and say it will be a "hands on lesson in democracy” for those 28,000 school children who, in turn, are expected to improve the voting habits of their parents by urging them to the polls: Now, therefore, be it *Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring)*, That election officials and school administrators in all 50 States and the District of Columbia should assess the results of the Kids Voting program in Arizona this November in terms of increased student awareness of an interest in the political process, that the Federal 102 STAT. 4900Election Commission should observe the Kids Voting program and advise the Congress on the success of the program in increasing voter turnout and, if this project does show promise of increasing voter turnout by both present and future voting age citizens, other States should adopt similar innovative programs.

(2)strictly observe human and civil rights and in so doing take immediate steps to disarm and restrain the remnants of Duvalier’s private army, the Tonton Macoutes, and to institute a judicial process whereby human rights violations will be vigorously investigated and violators will be brought to justice;
(3)reform a corrupt bureaucracy;
(4)promote economic development that will benefit the Haitian people by providing the security and freedom of association necessary for bottom-up, grass-roots development;
(5)improve cooperation between the United States and Haiti in dealing with the growing problem of narcotics trafficking through Haiti and to take meaningful steps to halt the involvement of the Haitian military in the transshipment of illicit drugs; and
(6)demonstrate the willingness of the Haitian armed forces to submit to legally constituted civilian authority and to fully respect and abide by the Constitution of Haiti. Sec. 2. It is further the sense of the Congress that—
(1)there will be no resumption of regularized and sustained government-to-government assistance, as part of a normaliza-102 STAT. 4911tion of relations with the Government of Haiti, until the election of a civilian government pursuant to free, fair and open elections held in accordance with the provisions set forth in section 1; and
(2)the appropriate executive branch officials should consult fully and completely with the Congress before assistance of any kind is made available by the United States to the Government of Haiti. Sec. 3. The Congress further declares its support for the people of Haiti and their desire for democratic government and economic development by directing that the appropriate committees of the Congress conduct hearings to determine what legislative actions may be appropriate and necessary to promote free, fair and open elections leading to civilian government in Haiti, including in creased economic aid should the government take the steps outlined in section 1, or, in the event of its failure to do so, the feasibility of additional sanctions as outlined in legislation now pending before the Congress.

Res. 371](/us/bill/100/hconres/371).] Whereas in Burundi a unique system of ethnic domination has subordinated the 85 percent of Burundi’s population of Hutu ethnicity to the will of a Tutsi minority comprising less than 15 percent of the total population; Whereas since coming to power one year ago, Major Pierre Buyoya has begun efforts to alleviate this domination, combat corruption, release political prisoners, normalize church-state relations, increase Hutu representation at the cabinet level, introduce macroeconomic reforms, and make known his intention to introduce other reforms benefitting the Hutu majority; Whereas these steps toward national reconciliation have been taken in order to prevent a repetition of the tragic violence in 1972, which resulted in a tremendous loss of life; Whereas in mid-August an outbreak of ethnic conflict in northern Burundi at Ntega reportedly resulted in the deaths of at least several hundred people, and possibly many more, including a significant number of innocent Tutsi; Whereas the Government of Burundi reportedly responded to the killings at Ntega by dispatching 2 army battalions, comprised almost exclusively of Tutsi soldiers and equipped with machine guns, helicopters, and armored personnel carriers, to restore order in the tense northern localities of Ntega and Marangara, where they reportedly engaged in the killing of between 5,000 and 20,000 Hutu, many of them innocent civilians; Whereas these alleged actions by the Burundi army also resulted in the internal displacement of thousands of Hutu and the flight to neighboring Rwanda of 55,000 to 60,000 Hutu, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees; Whereas the Government of Burundi has rejected a request by the European Community to allow an international inquiry team to investigate this tragic series of events and the many unexplained circumstances surrounding it; Whereas in 1972 a Hutu revolt, in which many innocent Tutsi were killed, was followed by massive, systematic counter-violence by the Burundi Government and army which left an estimated 100,000 Hutu dead and which quickly became a genocidal-type 102 STAT. 4921operation aimed at the physical liquidation of educated and semi educated Hutu; Whereas the 1972 revolt generated a massive involuntary migration of 150,000 Hutu to neighboring states and resulted in a system in which the Tutsi successfully excluded the Hutu from all positions of power, influence, and wealth in the army, the civil service, the university, and secondary schools; Whereas during the period 1972 through 1973 no effective protest to the events in Burundi was launched by the Organization of African Unity, the United Nations, or Western diplomacy and, with the exception of Belgium, the dominant impression one gained of Western diplomacy during the crisis was one of almost total indifference in the face of unrelieved tragedy; Whereas Burundi has recently become the largest per capita recipient in the world of World Bank low interest loans, to the extent that in 1988 Burundi will receive $80,000,000 in grants and concessional loans while also benefitting from a 3-year World Bank structural adjustment facility amounting to $90,000,000; and Whereas in early August, just prior to the outbreak of violence in northern Burundi, the United States announced the obligation of a $4,850,000 population program which raised United States economic aid to $7,500,000 for fiscal year 1988: Now, therefore, be it *Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring)*, That the Congress—
(1)urges the Government of Burundi to maintain and greatly increase its recent efforts toward national reconciliation in the hope of preventing further tragic loss of life and additional human suffering;
(2)condemns the recent violence in Burundi reportedly carried out by the armed forces of Burundi, other authorities, and private individuals against innocent Burundi citizens;
(3)urges the President and Secretary of State to press for a negotiated nonviolent reform of Burundi’s historical inequities that results in genuine national reconciliation, reduction of the now heightened risk of continued cross-border violence, and continued advance in Burundi’s economic reform program, through direct representations to the Government of Burundi and representatives of ethnic communities and private non-governmental bodies in Burundi and through sustained multilateral initiatives involving other Western donors (especially the European Community, France, and Belgium), the United Nations, the Organization of African Unity, and Burundi’s regional neighbors;
(4)urges the President and the Secretary of State to conduct a comprehensive reassessment of the United States bilateral relationship with the Government of Burundi with a view toward the suspension of United States assistance (other than humanitarian aid) unless within 6 months after the date of the enactment of this resolution—
(A)an impartial inquiry, with the involvement of credible international organizations and with full access to the affected regions, has been initiated to determine the causes of the outbreaks of violence in August and recommend future action to achieve an effective national reconciliation in Burundi;
(B)the Government of Burundi has taken steps to investigate and prosecute those military and administrative officials 102 STAT. 4922and private individuals responsible for the recent atrocities committed against innocent Burundi citizens;
(C)the Government of Burundi has made substantial progress in promoting the safe return to their homes of Burundi’s internally displaced and refugee populations; and
(D)the Government of Burundi continues to assure foreign journalists and international humanitarian relief organizations free access to the areas affected by the recent violence; and
(5)urges the President and the Secretary of State to undertake a suspension of United States assistance to Burundi and to oppose future World Bank loans to Burundi (as authorized under section 701 of the International Financial Institutions Act) unless within one year after the date of the enactment of this resolution—
(A)there has been substantial progress by the Government of Burundi in advancing the internal reform of Burundi’s military and civil administration and ensuring discipline and control in military and administrative inter actions with Burundi citizens, especially those of Hutu ethnicity, in order to prevent a recurrence of the violence in August; and
(B)there has been substantial progress by the Government of Burundi in further reversing patterns of ethnic discrimination against the majority Hutu, thereby promoting stable long-term development and political participation of all Burundi citizens, through improvements in the equality of access to economic opportunities and public services and through increased respect of the internationally-recognized human rights of all Burundi citizens.

(1)commends the Government of Thailand, the Government of Hong Kong, the Government of Malaysia, the Government of the Philippines, and the Government of Indonesia for their history of humanitarian treatment of refugees;
(2)urges the Government of Thailand to reinstitute its humane and generous former policy of first asylum, officially end its policy of interdiction of arriving refugee boats, and take the appropriate steps at the local level to ensure that the policy of first asylum is implemented;

(6)commends the President for his decision in fiscal year 1988 to increase the overall number of refugees to be admitted to the United States, in the face of an increase in refugees emigrating from the Soviet Union, rather than decrease the number of refugees from Southeast Asia;
(7)commends the President for proposing for fiscal year 1989 a generous admission policy which reflects the special issues involved in refugee policy in Southeast Asia, including the need for a much expanded Orderly Departure Program for refugees wishing to depart from Vietnam and a renewed effort on the part of the United States to alleviate the strain presently felt by first asylum nations in the region;
(8)urges the Department of State to continue working with the governments of the member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, the Government of Hong Kong, the Government of Australia, the Government of New Zealand, the Government of Canada, and other governments to find ways to meet the security concerns of the governments of the region while responding to the humanitarian needs of Southeast Asian refugees seeking first asylum and resettlement; 102 STAT. 4924
(9)urges the President and the Department of State to make every effort to admit the full number of Southeast Asian refugees that is fixed, in consultation with the Congress, each year;

(11)urges the Government of Vietnam to cease immediately its occupation of Cambodia;
(12)urges the governments of countries of Indochina to cease their policies of economic, political, and social repression against their people, which cause the continued movement of refugees out of those countries; and
(13)urges the United States to participate actively with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and the governments of the member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations in preparations for the convening of a new international conference on Indochinese refugees which seeks to adopt a comprehensive program of action to deal with the Vietnamese boat people problem in all its aspects, taking into account the concerns of all interested parties.
