Speech #1030071272

The bill I expect to report to the Senate in September will contain cuts several hundred million dollars deeper than those of the House. Because of the need to squeeze the special Russia aid package into our funding allocation. virtually every program in the foreign aid budget will be reduced. some very deeply. Programs that I have fought for years to protect will have to be cut. Help for international disaster relief will have to be cut. We will not be able to fund assistance for refugee relief at anything like the real needs. And the list goes on and on. Work on finding ways to fund the Presidents Russia aid request will continue over the August break.
