The letter requested an opportunity to present their case by these Governors, ´for Federal reimbursement "for the costs associated with undocumented immigrants and refugees."

(The information follows:) Letter From Lawton Chiles, Governor, State of Florida; Pete Wilson, Governor, State of California; Fife Symington, Governor, State of Arizona; Jim Edgar, Governor, State of Illinois; and Christine Todd Whitman, Governor, State of New Jersey April 20, 1994. The Honorable Robert C. Byrd, Chairman, Appropriations Committee, United States Senate, Washington, DC. Dear Mr. Chairman: In conjunction with the congressional appropriations process, we would like your assistance in setting aside time prior to markup before the full Committee, or in a joint hearing before the relevant subcommittees of jurisdiction, to present our case for federal reimbursement for the costs associated with undocumented immigrants and refugees. As the Governors of the States most impacted by illegal immigration, we have made a concerted effort to achieve full federal financial responsibility for undocumented immigrants and refugees. Immigration is exclusively a federal responsibility. Yet, current federal immigration policy mandates that the States provide education and emergency health care services for undocumented immigrants. And changes in federal refugee policy and programming fail to address the substantial impact borne by state and local governments. As a result, taxpayers in our States have been forced to bear a disproportionate share of the costs of a population that is here due to a failed federal policy.
