These are extremely longterm10 years or morepolitical prisoners who refused to undergo political rehabilitation. and who were never broken by Castros prisons. If and when Cuba releases these prisoners. INS and the State Department would put them at the head of the list and process them quickly. These people do not face any problems in being processed as refugees. So our bill need not address the entry of these Cubans into the United States. The second group of Cubans consists of between 10.000 and 30.000 expolitical prisoners and their families who want to come to this country from Cuba. Current policy is to process only those political prisonersand their familieswho are or were in prison for 10 years or more.
