Speech
by Sen. Trent Lott (R-Mississippi), June 22, 2000
Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I
thank the managers of this very important legislation, the foreign operations
appropriations bill. It has a lot of important provisions in it, funds
that are critical to our foreign policy. We did have two very significant
votes with regard to the Colombian aid. I think probably some Members
were surprised by the show of support, with 89 votes against cutting the
funds in one instance and maybe 79 in the other instance.
