House votes on foreign aid restrictions for 1980 budget
In two amendments the House passed limits on foreign aid. A 281 to 117 vote barred direct or indirect U.S. aid to Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Angola and the Central African Empire, arguing for strings on funds via banks or outright human rights bans.
