Our recommended level of $4.135 billion is. however. $242 million below this years level. We have provided $10 million to modernize overseas processing of visas. and will enable the State Department to get rid of the antiquated methods of checking backgrounds of individuals trying to enter the United States. We have provided $410 million for maintenance and repairs of our embassies overseas. $445 million is included for international peacekeeping. and $905 million is included for the United Nations and international organizations. And we have included two amendments suggested by Senator DOMENICI The first requires that. the United Nations give American companies a fair shot at procurement contracts. and the second withholds U.N. arrearage payments until the United Nations creates an inspector general.
