What is being asked for on behalf of Israel is of no cost consequence to the American taxpayer in any way or any form. Mr. President. the time to act is now to let Israel know that we are going to be there to support our commitments. both moral and humanitarian. made in times past. and reaffirmed just a couple of months ago when the supplemental appropriations was approved and enacted. It is my hope that the administration will reconsider its position and will work with the Senate Appropriations Committee and the Congress to approve these refugee guarantees without delay. Mr. President.
