I rise to support the Conference Report of H.R. 1141the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Bill before us today. I do so reluctantly. however. because of the many special interest riders that have been attached to this emergency legislation. In the final analysis I will support the conference report because it provides critically important funds to assist American farmers. to support ongoing action against Yugoslavia. to relieve the suffering of Kosovar refugees. and to help Central America recover from the devastating effects of Hurricane Mitch. In light of all the other measures that have been added to this bill. many of dubious merit. I deeply regret.
