There are certain commitments we must carry out. and in the eyes of the world these are commitments we have made publicly and by law. So. Mr. President. I hope that the majority of this Senate will find it in its hearts to vote against the Byrd amendment. I know that it is tempting to vote against foreign aid. Of all the functions in this budgetary account. the easiest to vote against would be foreign aid. There are few constituents. There are no constituents of these programs to vote for us. These are refugees. These are the Israelis. These are the Egyptians.
