I have promised the other Appropriations Committee members that I will not insist that we put this amendment on this bill tonight. Let me make this clear. though. I will look for an appropriation bill. Do not think I and Senators who believe as I do are going to wait around for the House to send us a consolidated supplemental or a foreign assistance appropriation bill while we neglect these leaders of freedom down there. I met them. and learned of their problems. Costa Rica has enjoyed freedom for a long time. Now. they are accepting thousands of refugees. They are broke. yet we are not doing enough. We hold back some of what has already been appropriated.
