Memo from Dick to Alan K. Simpson, August 22, 1994

The memorandum supports the U.S. administration's new policy of treating Cuban and Haitian migrants equally, ending the special treatment Cubans previously received under the Cuban Adjustment Act. It also highlights concerns about the increasing number of Cuban rafters attempting to illegally immigrate to the U.S., the need for offshore detention facilities, and the potential economic pressure on Cuba from restricting remittances.
