How can we now smother these programs by withholding funds which are imperative for thousands of school districts all over the country? I say we sacrifice not only our childrens future. but the future of our Nation as well. This appropriation bill in its present form would delete all Elementary and Secondary Education Act aid to IndiaA schools. it would eliminate $9 million in funds primarily for migrant. handicapped children in State schools and hospitals. neglected and delinquent children in State and local institutions and disadvantaged children regularly enrolled in school. and it would deny more than $117 million in reading. language skills. and other compensatory education services. and related items. Essentially. the impact of these proposed reductions will affect our future citizens across the entire Nation. I strongly support. and I urge your support. of the amendment to add $138.800.000 to the appropriation bill for the restoration of funds for the federally affected areas which has just been introduced by my colleague from Hawaii.
