I believe the American people are prepared to accept these obligations. And the purpose of todays hearing is to explore the best ways to go about this national effort. It is still not too late to redeem the hope of the Paris Agreementsand to move. as Secretary Kissinger stated just 2 years ago. "from hostility to normalization to conciliation and cooperation." Mr. President. I ask unanimous consent that the text of my letter to President Ford be printed in the RECORD. as well as the prepared testimony of Daniel Parker. Administrator of the Agency for International Development. describing the preliminary steps taken by our Government to meet the refugee crisis.
