Group Seeks 20 Percent Cut to Foreign Aid
The House Appropriations Committee recommended slicing foreign aid by about 20 percent, reducing the current year funding to 5.9 billion plus the 1.4 billion carryover, far below President Kennedy’s 7.3 billion request. The panel criticized past spending as wasteful and warned the unexpended balance could fund aid for nearly two years, though much carryover is already obligated. It upheld a ban on funds to governments based on communism with exceptions for a Polish hospital project.
