With the kind of youth unemployment that we have. I do not think it makes sense. Immigrant education. I hear a lot of speeches that we ought to make English the official language around here. I do not know what it would mean. incidentally. Would that mean you cannot get a translation if you are in court if you speak Chinese or Spanish or some other language? But it is interesting that when we come up for immigrant education to have classes so that people can learn the English languageand that is really the way you make English the official language. let people learn the language. and we ought to do that--we are cutting $8.8 million out of that. I believe that the amendment by Senator DASCHLE is a sound amendment. I agree with Senator PACKvooD and I agree with our Presiding Officer that we need a balanced budget amendment and that we ought to start from a zero base and not a current services budget.
