Speech #980066991

You have heard described to you in far more eloquent terms than I could ever here tonight. tell you of the troubles that beseige these brave people in El Salvador. What we are trying to do is call to the attention of the American people the problems that we as Americans are going to face if we let our neighbors in Central America down. I could not better explain to you the refugee problem we are going to have. the disease. sickness. health. educational problems we are going to have. employment problems we are going to have. I cannot better describe that to you than has been described by those who preceded me to this podium here tonight. I find it strange that my colleagues over on this side of the aisle impose upon the Government of El Salvador restriction after restriction to receive a few paltry hundred million dollars.
