Do you favor raising the foreign aid level for fiscal year 1980which ends in about 90 days. 3 months to spend this moneyroughly a half billion or more dollars? Let me just give you the arithmetic we are facing here today. This bill cuts substantially State revenue sharing. This bill does not honor defense commitments that many people wanted to honor. This bill does not go nearly as far as some will wish to meet refugee needs for the Cubans and the Haitians and the border problems we have. This bill does not fund food stamps as much as a lot of people would like. But those are not the objects we are adding a half billion dollars for.
