This item of revenue sharing was in the budget resolution all along. It still is. Now. all of a sudden. there is $1 billion for Mount St. Helens. most of which has not been requested by the various agencies of the executive branch. And $25 million for Cuban refugeesnone of those moneys were requested by the various agencies to which the Senator from Florida wants to give those moneys. and so on down the list of special interests all within this appropriations bill. I am not going to stand here and whack away at those individually. Believe me. on their merits. most of those deserve to fail.
