I thank the gentleman for yielding. and I seek this time to make inquiries with regard to refugee assistance. Mr. Speaker. section 101(b) provides continuing authority under current terms and conditions and at a rate to maintain current operating levels for Labor. HHS and Education programs. including all of those related to refugee assistance. With regard to cash and medical assistance provided to refugees. our committee has stated clearly that the Federal Government is responsible for 100percent reimbursement of all eligible costs. Mr. Speaker. the State of California is faced with the possibility of a significant shortfall and is currently trying to resolve this matter with Social Security Administration officials.
