Summary

Expresses the intent of Congress that the President of the United States be urged to direct the representative of the United States to the United Nations to call upon that body to request the settlement of the question of the unification of Ireland and that the people of Northern Ireland have a free opportunity to express their will for union and that this be attained by an election of the people of all Ireland, north and south, under the auspices of a United Nations Commission for Ireland, to be designated by the General Assembly which shall establish the terms and conditions of such election. Provides that the United States of America shall discontinue all military aid and training programs with the United Kingdom of Great Britain which are related to the suppression of the minority in Northern Ireland and which are not directly related to North Atlantic Treaty Organization commitments and that the United States of America shall embargo the exportation of all weapons and ammunition to the United Kingdom of Great Britain which are related to the suppression of the minority in Northern Ireland and which are not exclusively reserved for North Atlantic Treaty Organization usage.
