HAMDT 125 (102nd)

Amendment sought to delete language which requires any country receiving U.S. cash transfer assistance to purchase an equal amount in goods and services from the U.S. and that 50 percent of all bulk shipments of U.S. grain to recipient countries be made on U.S. flag vessels. It would have required countries receiving such assistance to encourage their domestic importers, whenever feasible, to purchase U.S. grain and other agricultural products and to employ U.S. flag vessels.
