Mr. President. this resolution concerning refugees was unanimously adopted by the Interparliamentary Union Committee on Parliamentary. Juridical. and Human Rights Questions. of which I was a member In Oslo. and I believe that it is a very useful document. The Senate and the American people are on record favoring a balanced budget. Domestic program reductions offered by the President and the Budget Committee in some cases exceeded the cut proposed for international affairs. Certainly we should put care for our own elderly and care for education and other efforts here at home ahead of foreign assistance. This foreign aid cut would not be as great as many cuts we are making in our own domestic programs.
