September 21. 1972. when the House of Representatives considers the Foreign Assistance Act. I expect to offer the following amendment: SEC. 506. None of the funds appropriated or made available pursuant to this Act for carrying out the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. as amended. may be used to provide loans. credits. financial and investment assistance. or insurance guarantees on sales to or investments in any Nation which requires payment above nominal and customary costs for exit visas. exit permits or for the right to emigrate. This amendment is designed to prohibit credits. loans. and guarantees on investment in the Soviet Union. as long as it continues to impose exorbitant exit charges on those who desire to depart the country. In the Soviet Union. these charges are reported to range up to 87.000 rubles.
