On the international front. the World Summit for Children Implementation Act seeks increases in fiscal 1994 and fiscal 1995. through reallocations within the foreign aid budget. for a variety of essential childrens and human needs programs. Among these programs are: child survival. basic education. UNICEF. vitamin and other micronutrients. refugees. and AIDS prevention. In the midst of a foreign aid budget of over $14 billion. surely we can find the funding to allow modest increases in programs that can both save and improve the lives of the worlds most vulnerable children. If the administration Is given great discretion In terms of foreign aid spending priorities. the sponsors of this bill and I are urging the administration to spend the kinds of levels on childrens basic needs programs suggested In the World Summit for Children Implementation Act.
