I rise in strong support of the bill %nd urge its adoption by the House. The crisis which this supplemental appropriation addresses is both compelling in human terms and time sensitive. and I want to commend the House leadership and the committee for moving this bill to the floor so swiftly. All of us are fully aware of the plight of the Kurds and other Iraqi refugees. The media has given us a stark view of families. from very young children to their grandparents. suffering under horrendous conditions in rugged border regions far from their homes. At the request of the Speaker.
