I just want to remind the Members that it takes no more votes to take it right back out of that defense budget and give it to some of our senior citizens for longterm medical care or to some of our needy students for postsecondary education. and it takes no more votes to do that than it does to take it out of that defense budget and give it to Israel today. I say no more money for the wants of Israel while we let the needs of America go. Go back to your districts and ask people in your districts. those who may be unemployed. those who may need some loans. those who suffer from a lack of medical care. and when you tell them that we have no money in our Federal budget for that. but we can give $75 million more to refugees who are already being paid $13.000 a year just to migrate from some nation that is not compelling them to leave. and they are not refugees at all. I say. think about America.
