Planned Aid Bill Cut in House Foreign Affairs Panel
Washington from INS reports the House Foreign Affairs Committee aims to cut a further 50 million dollars from the President’s aid fund as it works to finish the foreign aid bill. Rep Armistead Selden proposes the amendment while noting Senate cuts already reduced the fund by 50 million and total military aid was trimmed by 400 million plus 200 million previously. The administration argues 283 million remains unspent from the 1996 year and will be used to stabilize allies, meet crises, aid refugees, and support development where loans fail. Chairman Gordon expects to finish the bill today, though floor consideration may be delayed to mid next week.
