I rise In support of the amendment. We all support a vigorous effort to eradicate drug production and trafficking. But there are two serious problems with subsidizing brutal. illegitimate governments. no matter how pure our motives. First. it legitimizes these dictators. A law enforcement partnership with the United States gives any regime more international prestige. It also gives their people a heightened sense of despair. These are the effects of our antiimmigration deal with Fidel Castro. These are the effects of our many concessions to the Beijing regime. The costs to human rights of any partnership with murderers are never tdvIal.
