These road graders. front loaders. and pickup trucks were bought and paid for by U.S. taxpayers. but our States did not even get to look at them. This is the type of surplus property that the States would very much like to receive. Mr. President. I share the concern of our States about this program. While I am glad that our Nation can assist refugees around the world with blankets and surplus food. I think the time has come to examine this donation program. A program that began by shipping clothes to one or two countries now involves hundreds of millions of dollars worth of items going to 117 countries.
