Mr. Speaker. I yield myself such time as I may require. Mr. Speaker. the conferees completed consideration of the dire emergency supplemental on Thursday afternoon. The conference agreement provides $2.823.896.500 for mandatory items and $1.603.774.941 in discretionary items. of which $1.212.402.941 are offset. The principal items that are not offset are the veterans medical care and $100 million for migration and refugee assistance. However. the latter item gives the option of a direct appropriation or a transfer. The agreement includes funds for veterans which have passed the House twice. May I point out again that on these veterans programs. we on this side of the aisle have consistently. with the support of our colleagues. taken care of the veterans in every way possible.
