Mr. President. I had intended to offer an amendment to add a small amount to the Department of States "Migration and Refugee Assistance" account to give the Department some greater flexibility in responding to the growing number of appeals of the International Committee of the Red Cross [ICRCI for their work in behalf of prisoners of war and political prisoners around the world. However. I understand that it may not be necessary to add new funding to achieve our objective. But I did want to take this opportunity to express my concerns to the distinguished managers of the bill and to review for the record some issues I believe we must address if we are to fully support the work of the International Red Cross.
