Diaz-Balart Arrested Over White House Protest Against Cuban Policy
Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart denounced the Clinton refugee policy as a dirty secret deal and was arrested for violating federal rules by standing within three feet of the White House gate. He questioned who represented the president at secret negotiations concluding the asylum reversal. The policy will send refugees back to Cuba and release 21,000 detainees from Guantanamo Bay. He also criticized a south coast power plant project costing about 800 million dollars.
