NIH would be cut by over $240 million. This institution is one of the highest priorities for Federal spending. The gentlemans amendment would cut cancer research in the National Cancer Institute $45 million. refugee and entrance assistance. by about $8 million. the social services block grant. that we just raised by $100 million. would be cut by $47 million. education for the disadvantaged. (title I) $127 million. special education. that the chairman of our committee came and said was such a high priority. and I agree with him. by almost $62 million. I cannot accept the amendment because we have already made the cuts. We have already done what the gentleman is attempting to achieve.
