We can just compare that to the fact that for all the 45 subSaharan African nations with a population of some 300 million. only $30 million. as compared to $3 billion. and now $75 million more. I want to just point out that the Haitians who fled oppression and went into Florida were given concentration camps. not a subsidy for their relocation. Members may have seen the MacNeil/Lehrer Report last night on PBS television. when he pointed out that the Israelis are providing $13.000 per refugee family for the first year of residence. and it does not even require them to seek employment during that time. Yet. they want $75 million more from us. I tell the Members that I have some unemployed steelworkers in my district who would like to get $13.000 a year while they are not having to seek employment.
