That is the amendment offered by Mr. LowRY. I believe it was. from the State of Washington. and it was very largely supported. I think unanimously supported. here in the House. There are 21 States that are affected by that amendment. Florida happens to be one of them. which has $10 million involved. And it arises from the fact that when the administration cut off the payment to the refugees. our State law did not allow us to cease our contribution until we had given 60 days notice. Consequently. we incurred an indebtedness or an expenditure of $10 million. Other States are similarly affected.
