Foreign Aid Bill Gets Another Chance
The Senate revived the administration’s first foreign aid bill of the year by approving a 1.5 billion dollar four year package for IDA lending to the world’s poorest nations. The House previously rejected a similar measure, but the Senate framed it as 375 million dollars annually for four years to give the House another vote. IDA, founded in 1960 as the World Bank’s soft loan arm, is backed by 25 nations and makes loans at a 0.75 percent service charge to nations with per capita incomes below 375 dollars.
