   AMERICA DOES NOT NEED TO USE FEDERAL DOLLARS FOR SUBLIMINAL HITS 
                             THROUGH MEDIA

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, Drug Czar McCaffrey has $1 billion to 
spend on media campaigns, but he settled for subliminal hits. First, 
the czar allowed TV networks to avoid the 50/50 match by incorporating 
antidrug messages in their programs. Now the czar wants to throw away 
more money this time in the movies. Unbelievable.
  The borders are wide open. Heroin and cocaine are pouring across the 
border faster than Viagra at Niagara, and the drug czar wants 
subliminal hits in Hollywood.
  Beam me up. America needs to stop drugs, cocaine and heroin, at our 
borders. And one thing America does not need is to start using Federal 
dollars to make subliminal hits on American citizens through the media. 
That is just what Communists do.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield back all the drugs in Hollywood to boot.
