Neither are we insensitive to the needs of those persons who are in disadvantaged situations. in unfortunate situations. in foreign lands. who are attempting to remove themselves from those hostile conditions. As a matter of fact. this Government earmarked more than $400 million this year for that kind of assistance. Approximately $100 million still remains for the last quarter of this fiscal year for use by these refugees and persons who are moving from one country to another. We are advised that there may be some shortfall in that funding if this amendment is approved. but only as it relates to the movement of persons from Afghanistan to Pakistan. All other areas should be provided for fully in the funds that are available.
