Mr. President. this is an amendment to construe and define the economically oppressed immigrants from Haiti as refugees. Mr. President. offshore of my State of Florida. Haitians are being pushed overboard by people trafficking in this misery when it looks like smuggling them in is about to be discovered. These Haitians. when they do arrive in Florida and on the east coast. are frequently incarcerated and they are treated so differently from the boat people in other oceans and from other immigrants of a status which is not clear that the black community in my State is under the impression that this borders on racism. I have to say that the Haitians that are being squeezed out of the Bahamas and squeezed out of their own homes and are in fear of starvation as well as oppression. deserve better treatment than that. So. to clarify their status.
