Now let me give my colleagues just one very specific figure. In Africa. 19 of the 30 least developed countries are receiving assistance. They are receiving real humanitarian assistance. food relief. all of the programs that people really need. The largest concentration of refugees in the world is in Africa. in Somalia. Now. this acrosstheboard cut would do damage not only to the dubious programs but to some of the very good. sound programs that we still sponsor under this bill. I would suggest that the House rise above its frustrations. its irritation with foreign affairs and with the occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
