We will be the only ones to blame if sailor Medvid disappears or becomes a nonperson. On November 1 of this year. the Senate passed an amendment I sponsored to the State. Justice. Commerce appropriations bill which requires U.S. officials at the INS and the Border Patrol. and any other officials who deal with possible asylum situations. to be better educated to respond to such situations. Where none now exist. formal procedures for U.S. agencies regarding the handling of persons seeking political asylum must be established. Current procedures should be revised as well to ensure that there will not be a repeat of this incident.
