“I also remind him, as he is very aware, there is money in this supplemental for our troops in Bosnia. Time is running out there, too. There is virtually no time left for us to get the supplemental assistance to the troops in Bosnia. It sends a terrible message to them not to address this legislation more successfully than we have. I can't think of anything more important in that regard, not only to address the disaster victims but to address the troops in Bosnia, to address all of those who are waiting for some sign that we understand how difficult their circumstances are, including people defending our country in faraway lands. So, I am compelled to object, and I only hope that at some point in the not-too-distant future, we are going to be able to resolve this matter, because they can't wait any longer.”
