What I tried to do was to spread the offsetting cuts as widely as I could in order to reach the $5.931.000 of excess over the Budget Committee target. As a result I am proposing an offsetting cut of approximately 2.5 percent in each of the following Justice Department accounts: General administration. U.S. Parole Commission. general legal activities. Foreign Claims Settlement Commission. and Antitrust Division. I know that any cut of these accounts will be tough to make. because the Justice Department budget is already so tight. Nevertheless. I believe that our immigration needs are so pressing at this time that we simply cannot afford to sit idly and watch our entire immigration system fall apart. Mr. President.
