i've introduced legislation, h.r. 654, which would prevent the president of the united states from handing over our navy -- naval base at guantanamo to the cuban regime without congressional approval. this is very different than the debate over the future of the prison, very different than the debate over the transfer of detainees. this simply says we as the united states have a naval station 90 miles off our shore and when the raul castro demands that we return that to the cuban people and pay reparations to the cuban government, as terms of negotiation, my legislation says, no. mr. president, you may not do that without coming to this body to ask for authorization and certainly i would not lend my vote to that. i was pleased to hear testimony in the senate when the administration said, that is not a matter they would consider. but as we have seen, the president's negotiations in the past, it gives us reason to pause. my legislation would simply codify the restriction that says guantanamo navy station may not be returned to the cuban people without congressional approval. . finally, we do have a role i
