I think all of us recognize what the Foreign Service does. and I appreciate the comments of Senator SNowE. S. 908 as reported from the Committee on Foreign Relations. would abolish ACDA and place the retained functions and personnel in a single bureau of the Department of State. That bureau would be one of five under the control of an undersecretary also responsible for international narcotics. law enforcement. politicalmilitary affairs. humanitarian assistance. refugees. and migration affairs. We believe that what can only be described as a jumbled reorganization would be in error that could prove very costly to our Nation. and to our arms control efforts. for several reasons. First. this major downgrading of the arms control apparatus at a time in which major threats to our security are becoming both more diverse and more challenging is a dangerously shortsighted action.
