H.R. 6942. as reported. is $99.1 million over the Presidents original request for fiscal year 1981. and $223.5 million above the Presidents revised request. belatedly submitted last March. Therefore. in recognition of the growing economic burdens and attendant sacrifices with which Americans are daily struggling. I intend to offer an amendment. at the appropriate time. which will reduce the authorization in this bill by 10 percent after taking into account certain exemptions. Those exemptions include aid for Israel and Egpyt and funds authorized for peacekeeping. American schools and hospitals abroad. International narcotics control. and migration and refugee assistance. Based on the total authorization. as reported. of $5.5 billion. my amendment would cut. after excluding the items I mentioned. about $314.6 million. At that point.
