“The administration had intended to use the existing P.L. 480 title 2 resources and surplus commodities from the section 416(b) program to meet the needs in Kosovo. As we know, the needs have exceeded in terms of numbers of refugees and the duration in the camps, and I just respond to the issue that the gentleman had brought up. I want to thank the distinguished gentleman [Mr. Callaham] for his leadership, the distinguished ranking member [Mr. Obey], the distinguished chairman of the full committee [Mr. Young] for his cooperation, and I urge my colleagues to support this amendment.”
