Fear Foreign Aid Faces Big Cuts in Congress
UPI reports congressional supporters fear the foreign aid program could face a record cut. A presidential committee headed by Gen. reportedly says reforms could trim the program by 1.55 billion, surpassing last year’s $500 million reduction. Kennedy plans to send his aid message April 2, aiming for about a $200 million cut from the initial $4.9 billion request. Senate and House leaders weigh the Clay report as leaders call for reassessment of foreign aid expenditures worldwide.
