They do not want to see the most vulnerable. the children and the elderly. starving and freezing and going without the absolute basic necessities. But unless we have the additional humanitarian assistance. that will be the case. In addition. in the socalled open rule. the gentleman from Ohio . as was mentioned. was denied the opportunity to put in $150 million in additional food assistance for the refugees. How can this be called an open rule if the gentleman from Ohio. who is on the committee. has standing on the Issue. is present at the table to make his case. is denied the opportunity to present an amendment which will give people food to eat? We are talking about the basics. I was pleased to join our distinguished chairman. the gentleman from Florida . on a visit to the Balkans. We visited the refugee camps. We can speak firsthand as to the needs there and to how those needs have grown since the administration made its request to Congress. I support the Presidents request.
