Mr. Chairman. I rise in support of H.R. 927. legislation that refocuses attention on the root of the problem in CubaFidel Castro. His willingness to use his people as a leverage point. by deliberately manufacturing refugee crises. has been his greatest weapon. He has done a much better job of using this weapon than we have using oursthe embargo. But today Fidel Castros regime is struggling to collect the hard currency it needs to survive. H.R. 927 ups the economic pressure on Castro by cutting off the currency supply line. in particular by sanctioning foreign investors willfully trafficking in the confiscated property of American citizens.
