Watson Coleman: “I must tell the gentleman that some communities will be unable to come up with those kinds of funds that are necessary…”

“I must tell the gentleman that some communities will be unable to come up with those kinds of funds that are necessary, I think, for some of these additional costs, unless they are budgeted in some way; that there is some provision made at our level to say that we intend to hold harmless those departments who are working in that area, or at least provide some assistance to them, maybe through the INS. That is the kind of thing I would like to work out, and maybe we can find a mechanism for funding it. I do not think that people would object, as I said earlier, to the thrust of the amendment. I am very concerned about its workability. As I say, I welcome the opportunity to work with the gentleman.”
