The CIAs record under Reaganits failure in the past tI inform Congress and the American people about its actions in Nicaraguasuggests to me that we could not be sure how this money would be used. Most significantly. MICH. would allow the use of contingency lunds for military operations after October 1. The Hamilton substitute. on the other hand. initiates a new policy. It provides no funds for paramilitary operations. but it does not rule out use of military options in the future. It directs $10 million in assistance to Nicaraguan refugees through the International Red Cross or the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. It directs $4 million to the implementation of a Contadora agreement. This will signify both our concern about the region and our support for a negotiated settlement.
