But I shall work this year to secure a separation of these programs so that they can be voted upon by the Congress as individual packages in the future. There is no excuse for using one advisable program as a hostage for completely inadvisable expenditures. We should not need to support an outrageous military expenditure simply because other justifiable programs will be killed by voting against a mixed package. Mr. President. the Peace Corps. the Bangladesh refugees and displaced persons. the Alliance for Progress. the State of Israel. and the World Bank. among other things deserve and require our support. For that reason. I must vote for this appropriation bill.
