Many of them are eligible for resettlement in third countries. including this country. There have been a number of bottlenecks. however. to that resettlement. even for those who are eligible for resettlement in this country. Having not come to their direct military assistance. and having not even lifted the arms embargo so they can defend themselves. the least we can do. it seems to me. is eliminate bottlenecks and roadblocks to the resettlement of those refugees where they are eligible for resettlement here. This amendment simply would require the Department of State. within 60 days after the enactment of this law. to brief the Judiciary committees of the House and the Senate on the steps being taken by the United States to assure that all appropriate efforts are being made to expeditiously identify and assist all cases of Bosnian individuals and families who request thirdparty resettlement here and who are eligible to seek that status and refugee status in the United States. I understand this has been cleared by the Senator from Massachusetts and the Senator from North Carolina. Based on that assumption.
