The committee has accommodated this request by providing $30 million. This will ensure that we will have greater resources to fight this major health problem. This bill also restores a House cut in the domestic refugee and entrant assistance program by providing $405 million. The House cut $79 million from the Refugee Cash and Medical Assistance Program [RCMA) and the Senate Appropriations Committee restored most of these funds. The President proposed to cut this program by 50 percent. I commend the subcommittee for recognizing how critical the domestic refugee and entrant assistance program is to successful resettlement of refugees fleeing desperate situations in their home countries. Mr. President.
