They are still trying to get out. There are about 40.000 applications on file and the Department of State estimates that twothirds of them qualify. 2.000 new applications are received every month. The Congressional Budget Office. after five contrary determinations. now says there is a cost to continuing the Lautenberg amendment. This is nonsense. We set a cap on refugee admissions every year. The Lautenberg amendment does not add a single number to that cap. It simply determines refugee admissions within the cap. So it is absurd to suggest there is any cost involved in this amendment.
