A concurrent resolution expressing the sense of Congress in opposition to certain import restrictions imposed by the European Community that adversely affect United States agricultural exports and urging the President to use to the fullest extent his authority to respond to these practices.

Summary

Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the administration should continue to oppose actions by the European Community to impose quotas on oilseeds in Portugal, to impose a grain purchase requirement quota on Portugal, and to place variable levies on corn and grain sorghum entering Spain before negotiating compensation; and (2) unless the European Community rescinds such trade restrictions or the United States receives compensation for resulting trade losses, the administration should impose trade restrictions on a sufficient value of exports of the European Community to the United States to reestablish the balance of concessions under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade and other trade agreements.
