House Resolution 1468 provides for an open rule with 2 hours of general debate on H.R. 17234. a bill to amend the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. House Resolution 1468 provides that the bill shall be read for amendment by titles instead of by sections. H.R. 17234 states the sense of Congress that no aid should be given to any nation in the Middle East which denies its citizens the right to emigrate. It earmarks $100 million in military grant aid for Israel. $250 million each in security supporting assistance to Israel and Egypt. and $200 million in military credit sales to Israel. HR. 17234 repeals the $150 million ceiling on U.S. military aid and credit sales to Latin America. but it retains the present $40 million ceiling for Africa while adding Presidential authority to waive the limitation.
