Mr. Chairman. I rise in support of the substitute offered by the gentleman from Indiana . As previous Members have outlined. the Hamilton substitute provides $32 million in previously appropriated funds for Central American refugees. for resettlement of Contras who cease their military activities. and for the Contadora peace process. The amendment would also provide $27 million for assistance to persons in Central America displaced by the conflict In Nicaragua. Importantly. no money would be made available for the Contras to wage war. I share the concerns of my colleagues both from the other side of the aisle and from my own party.
