The issue is also the same. Should the American taxpayer be an unwillini partner in supporting three of the mosi infamous regimes in the world today? I would hope that my colleagues will remember the agony of the thousands o1 refugees in Florida and the million ox more refugees in Thailand and support this clear statement of policy toward the governments that caused these tragedies. The United States is addressing the staggering refugee crisis elsewhere in this bill and in other legislation. Earlier this week Deputy Secretary of State Warren Christopher stated that some $29.5 million in U.S. aid was going to help those starving in the refugee camps in Thailand. It is estimated that another $300 million may be spent on aiding the Cuban refugees in Florida. My amendment targets the aid given directly to the rogue governments of Cuba. Cambodia. and Vietnam via the international organizations under section 302 (a) (1) of the Foreign Assistance Act of As in past years.
