We are trying to help countries in the Caribbean to improve their standard of living. just as we are trying to help Africa. Latin America. Europe and on and on. Economic development programs in Latin America are an important part of our overall efforts to control the illegal immigration and drug trafficking that has had an impact on the people of Florida and other southern States. There was an intensive debate in Committee. and the bills funding level of $629 million for the Development Fund for Africa is one that was given great care. We had to find other programs in the bill and forced them to accept disproportionately large cuts in order to provide this level of aid to Africa.
