Without this supplemental funding. we know that the road to recovery for these countries will be a long and difficult one. We have chosen to assist by helping rebuild their infrastructure and by providing humanitarian assistance. and this bill is required if we are to fill those obligations. Additionally. and somewhat related to the disastrous hurricane season in Latin America. this bill contains $80 million in funding for the Immigration and Naturalization Service to better help them cope with the influx of people seeking to escape the intolerable living conditions in their home countries. Hopefully. as these countries recover from this tragedy. we will see the exodus from Central America return to the levels prior to the onset of last years hurricane season. Furthermore. this bill provides domestic relief for some of our most needy citizens--our farmers.
