The bill that was adopted by the House was a very clean management and budget authorization for thq Department of State. the U.S. Information Agency. the Board for International Broadcasting. and other related agencies. The Senate version. unfortunately. contained over 60 amendments dealing with such issues as foreign policy. immigration policy. environmental concerns. public housing. and other nonState Department issues. This led. as many of you are aware. to 11 other standing committees of the House being represented on this conference. I am pleased to report that after weeks of negotiating. the conference report which we bring back to the House is essentially a management and budget bill once again.
