Sparkman Pushes Compromise on Foreign Aid Spending
Senator Sparkman of Alabama urged a compromise on foreign aid that would allow long range planning while preserving Congress control over spending. He said language should ensure continued military and economic assistance as long as independence is threatened, with annual congressional review and appropriation authority maintained. The administration seeks permanent appropriations for military and economic aid, while lawmakers warn against blanket authority and push for oversight. A revolving fund proposal aims to loan funds for development, with three year cycles and borrowing authority, exceeding committee cautions on permanent status. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee resumes hearings Monday, with anticipated cuts to the administration’s requested totals.
