Question

You are once again the staffer to a new Senator. This time the year is 1993 and the Senator is asking you why he should vote to send billions of dollars to Russia to secure its nuclear materials and destroy its chemical and biological warfare facilities. “We have to pay for our own drawdown. Why should we pay for theirs too?”

Write a briefing memo to explain why the senator should or should not vote for the appropriations for Cooperative Threat Reduction programs.
