                              FIDEL CASTRO

  (Mr. GOSS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. GOSS. Mr. Speaker, I would think folks at Justice and Defense 
would be getting a little weary of cleaning up the mess caused by the 
Clinton administration's alleged foreign policy. Now we have Cuba at 
the front page again.
  Fidel Castro has a foreign policy. It is called Mariel II, and it is 
working. Who do we see coming to the rescue? Attorney General Janet 
Reno.
  Well, hello, State Department. Is anybody home? Some of us up here 
keep telling them the problem is Fidel Castro. It is time for him to 
go. It is past time for him to go. It is time for the sanctions that we 
have put on to work.
  It is time to curb our allies who are flaunting the embargo, Spain, 
Jamaica, Mexico, and others trading openly with Cuba today.
  Attorney General Reno says, we will detain all incoming Cubans. 
Where? Where will we detain all those incoming Cubans? Florida? Fort 
Chaffe, AR, Guantanamo? Come to think of it, Guantanamo may make some 
sense. It is already in Cuba. Possibly we could make room there, if we 
ask the 15,000 Haitian refugees already there in tent city if they mind 
moving to Mariel, Cuba.
