Speech #990024939

I think it is overstated. It is the context in which this whole issue came before us. but we are talking about the process of developing a policy toward Central America. particularly Nicaragua. and the money is really a secondary importance. The Secretary of State stated that the refugee money was not even needed. I submit that the arguments that say that the refugee money will promote Contra refugees Is extraneous because the language in the bill is permissive. the President need not allocate 5 cents of the $14 million if he does not want to. This measure is called weak. a huffpuff. Last night I addressed the House. and I am not going to repeat my remarks here.
