If we wanted any conference report. we had to yield. and so we did. I am sorely disappointed. I hope we can find another way to increase these funds. I would like to make a point with respect to one particular program not included in the conference report. the special impact aid for immigrant children. Although the conferees did not accept tile 3year authorization for this program included in the House bill. the program was authorized. and a $30 million appropriation made. in the continuing resolution for fiscal year 1984 (H.J. Res. 413). Thus. the program should be operational this year. and I urge the Department of Education to move expeditiously to implement it.
