We should pay something less than that. If we implemented this suggestion. we would save $43.888.400. Other expenses of the Department of State. "Migration and refugee assistance." We would cut 10 percent from what was spent in 1981. The program is growing by leaps and bounds. Taxpayers around the country. I know for sure in my district. and I do not think I am unique in this regard. are seriously concerned about the extent to which we are expending welfare assistance for refugees coming into this country. This program pays for refugees in other countries. not those in the United States. I do not believe we need to pauperize the taxpayers of this Nation by subsidizing other nations refugee problems. If we cut 10 percent from what would be spent in 1981. we would save $133.546.000. Another category of the Department of State: "U.S. bilateral science and technology agreements." We would eliminate this.
