And again. I want to thank the chairman and our ranking member. The bill also includes the full $3 billion in aid package for Israel and the critical $80 million for refugee resettlement assistance. With the tragic bombings today in Jerusalem. we have seen once again how very important it is for the United States to express its strong support for Israel and the Israeli people. Although the development assistance account is lower than the administration requested. an issue I would like to see corrected in conference. it does include a critical $10 million increase for international microcredit programs. which I think are absolutely critical to help raise the level of prosperity around the world.
