Slade Gorton
Mr. President, I rise for two brief colloquies with the distinguished chairman of the Appropriations Committee. I first want to bring to the distinguished chairman's attention some confusion regarding the committee's intent for approximately $6 million of the Army Corps of Engineers' budget. This money was intended to fund a very important project in Washington State. Unfortunately, we have been informed by the local Corps of Engineers office that without more specific direction from Congress, the agency cannot spend these funds. The Senate accepted the House position on this project, which was to provide $6 million for the Corps of Engineers to extend the south jetty at the Grays Harbor project to provide a permanent solution to the ongoing erosion problem. Would the chairman agree that my description of where these funds will be spent is consistent with the Conference Committee's intention?

Slade Gorton
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My second colloquy pertains to an additional $2 million from the Corps budget that should be allocated to dredge, monitor, and maintain the channel to determine the potential for cost effective maintenance near the Willapa River. Regrettably, the direction that our committee gave the Corps did not adequately distinguish between two phases of the Willapa Project. The first phase, which called for beach nourishment to protect the highway from wave erosion has been completed. The second phase, calling for channel dredging, monitoring and maintenance, has yet to be started. It was the original intention of the project proponents that the $2 million allocated for this project be directed to its second phase. The local office of the Corps of Engineers has indicated that it can spend the funds appropriately, provided it be given the necessary direction by Congress. Mr. chairman, given this misunderstanding, do you have any objection to the Corps using these funds for this purpose?

I have no objection to the Corps using the funds for that purpose. We have allocated significant funding for these projects and it is very important to ensure the funds are not wasted on needs which have already been addressed.

Thank you very much for the clarification, Mr. chairman. I greatly appreciate the Chairman's efforts on these two projects which address important economic, environmental, and public safety needs in southwest Washington. I also want to commend the chairman of the Energy and Water subcommittee, Senator Domenici, whose efforts were crucial to securing the necessary funds.

Joe Biden
Mr. President, I am pleased to support this legislation. Included within this appropriations bill is historic legislation, produced on a bipartisan basis in the Foreign Relations Committee, regarding the institutional structure of, and funding for, American foreign policy. This important legislation to reorganize the foreign policy agencies of the U.S. Government and authorize the payment of U.S. arrearages to the United Nations is similar to a bill approved by the Senate last June by a vote of 90-5. Unfortunately, the bill which the Senate overwhelmingly approved has been bogged down in conference with the other body over an issue which has no relevance to this bill.

I can assure my colleagues that the decision to include the authorization bill in an appropriations bill was not taken lightly. The Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, Senator Helms, and I sought to do so after careful consultation with the Senate leadership. But because two major elements of this bill are so critical to American foreign policy, the Chairman and I believed that we could not afford to delay this bill until next year. I hope my colleagues will agree.

Specifically, the bill addresses two important issues which were the focus of much heated debate in the last Congress. First, the bill provides for the payment of U.S. back dues to the United Nations, contingent on specific reforms by that body. Second, the bill establishes a framework for the reorganization of the U.S. foreign policy agencies which is consistent with the plan announced by the President last April.

Importantly, the bill also contains sufficient funds to restore our diplomatic readiness, which has been severely hampered in recent years by deep reductions in the foreign affairs budget. The funding levels in the bill largely mirror the Fiscal 1998 budget request submitted by the Clinton administration. The wide support in this Congress for providing increased funding for foreign affairs is an important achievement, and reverses a troubling trend of the past few years.

Although the cold war has ended, the need for American leadership in world affairs has not. Our diplomats often represent the front line of our national defense; with the downsizing of the U.S. military presence overseas, the maintenance of a robust and effective diplomatic capability has become all the more important. Despite the reduction in our military presence abroad, the increased importance of "diplomatic readiness" to our Nation's security has not been reflected in the Federal budget.

The increase in foreign affairs funding contained in this bill could not have come too soon. According to a report prepared at my request by the Congressional Research Service earlier this year, foreign policy spending is now at its lowest level in 20 years. Stated in fiscal 1998 dollars, the budget in fiscal 1997 was $18.77 billion, which is 25 percent below the annual average of $25 billion over the past two decades, and 30 percent below the level of 10 years ago, near the end of the Reagan administration. In fiscal 1997, such funding was just 1.1 percent of the Federal budget -- the lowest level in the past 20 years and about one-third below the historical average.

I should remind my colleagues that the bill is truly a bipartisan product. It began with negotiations involving the Foreign Relations Committee and the Clinton administration early in the year. The Senate subsequently passed that bill overwhelmingly in June, by a vote of 90- 5. Since that time, several changes have been made as a result of the conference deliberations with our House counterparts and negotiations with the Clinton administration. These were also undertaken in a spirit of bipartisanship. Because of these changes, I am confident that the bill will be acceptable to the President.

After the Second World War, a bipartisan and farsighted group of senators, led by Chairmen of the Foreign Relations Committee such as Thomas Connally and Arthur Vandenberg, worked with the Truman administration to construct a post-war order. The institutions created at that time -- the United Nations, the World Bank, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization -- are still with us today, but the task of modernizing these institutions to make them relevant to our times is just beginning.

For example, the Clinton administration and the Senate are cooperating on the first significant expansion of NATO -- an expansion to the east which will encompass three former adversaries in Central Europe. The Foreign Relations Committee, under the leadership of Chairman Helms, has initiated a series of hearings on the proposed enlargement of NATO, setting the stage for what I hope will be successful amendment to the Washington Treaty next spring. Similarly, this legislation now before us calls for significant reforms of the United Nations, an important instrument in American foreign policy which has become crippled both by growing U.S. arrearages and an unwillingness within that body to reform. Enactment of this legislation will be an important step forward in resolving both those problems.

Just as we are trying to revise and reenergize international institutions, we must reorganize our own foreign policy institutions. Two years ago, the Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee put forward a far-reaching plan to consolidate our major foreign affairs agencies -- the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency (ACDA), the United States Information Agency (USIA), and the Agency for International Development -- within the Department of State. In the context of an election cycle, it was perhaps inevitable that the Congress and the President would not come to agreement on it.

Joe Biden
But continued stalemate was not inevitable. With the onset of a new presidential term and the appointment of a new Secretary of State, a window of opportunity to revisit the issue was opened. The Chairman, to his credit, took advantage of this window by urging the new Secretary of State, Madeleine Albright, to take a second look at the reorganization issue. And, to her credit, the Secretary did so; the result was the reorganization plan announced by the President in April. Under the proposal, two agencies -- ACDA and USIA -- will be merged into the State Department. The Agency for International Development will remain an independent agency, but it will be placed under the direct authority of the Secretary of State.

The legislation now before the Senate closely reflects the President's proposal. The Arms Control and Disarmament Agency will be merged into the State Department no later than October 1, 1998, and the U.S. Information Agency will be merged no later than October 1, 1999. As with the President's plan, the Agency for International Development will remain a separate agency, but it will be placed under the direct authority of the Secretary of State. And, consistent with the President's proposal to seek improved coordination between the regional bureaus in State and AID, the Secretary of State will have the authority to provide overall coordination of assistance policy.

The bill puts flesh on the bones of the President's plan with regard to international broadcasting. The President's plan was virtually silent on this question, stating only that the "distinctiveness and editorial integrity of the Voice of America and the broadcasting agencies would be preserved." This bill upholds and protects that principle by maintaining the existing government structure established by Congress in 1994 in consolidating all U.S. government-sponsored broadcasting -- the Voice of America, Radio and TV Marti, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, Radio Free Asia, and Worldnet TV -- under the supervision of one oversight board known as the Broadcasting Board of Governors. Importantly, however, the Board and the broadcasters below them will not be merged into the State Department, where their journalistic integrity would be greatly at risk.

With regard to the United Nations provision, the bill provides $926 million in arrearage payments to the Union Nations over a period of 3 years contingent upon the U.N. achieving specific reforms. This will allow us to pay all U.S. arrears to the U.N. regular budget, all arrears to the peacekeeping budget, nearly all arrears to the U.N. specialized agencies, and all arrears to other international organizations.

It is difficult to exaggerate the significance of this achievement. We are finally in a position to lay to rest the perennial dispute over our unpaid dues that has severely complicated relations between the United Nations and the United States. This bill would give our diplomats the leverage they need to push through meaningful reforms that promise to make the U.N. a more capable institution.

Two important changes were made to the legislation that cleared the Senate last June. First, the bill now allows the crediting of $107 million owed to the U.S. by the U.N. against our arrears. Second, it gives the administration added flexibility by allowing the Secretary of State to waive two conditions. The waiver will not apply to the reduction of assessment rates or the establishment of inspectors- general in the specialized agencies. But report language will make a clear commitment that Congress would, if necessary, consider on an expedited basis a waiver on the condition for a 20 percent assessment rate for the U.N. regular budget.

Of course, not everyone is happy with the agreements the Chairman, Senator Helms, and I worked out. Some would have preferred to see no conditions at all attached to the payment of our debts. Others are unhappy that the United States is paying any arrears whatsoever.

I think it is fair to say that the Chairman and I approached this issue from two very different points of view. I make no excuses for my support of the United Nations. I believe that the U.N. is an indispensable arrow in our foreign policy quiver. The Chairman, I think it is fair to say, has been skeptical of the role of the United Nations.

But despite our differing outlooks, over the course of nearly 8 months of negotiation, dialogue, and old-fashioned bargaining, we each gave something and got something to return. The Chairman got several important conditions attached to the payment of arrears. Among other items, these include important managerial reforms, assurances that U.S. sovereignty will be protected, and a lowering of our assessment rate from 25 percent to 20 percent of the U.N. regular budget.

The United Nations allows us to leverage our resources with other countries in the pursuit of common interests, be it eradicating disease, mitigating hunger, caring for refugees, or addressing common environmental problems. And as the unfolding crisis with Iraq demonstrates, the United Nations can be a useful instrument in our diplomacy. The United States has played a leading role in the United Nations since its founding, and I believe that this legislation will secure that leadership.

While the purists on either side may not be happy with the agreement before us, I believe that we have produced a responsible piece of legislation that warrants the support of our colleagues.

In sum, the bill before the Senate, the Foreign Affairs Reform and Restructuring Act, is a significant achievement. I want to pay tribute to the Chairman for his continued good faith and cooperation throughout this process. I want to thank the President, the National Security Adviser, and the Secretary of State, for their support and assistance during the negotiations. I also want to thank our colleagues in the other body, particularly the ranking member of the International Relations Committee, Lee Hamilton, who played an important role in pushing for changes to make this proposal more acceptable to the administration.

Mr. President, the Commerce-State-Justice portion of this bill contains a few technical and clarifying changes to the Prison Litigation Reform Act enacted last year. The Majority Whip of the House of Representatives and I have been working together on this language, and I believe this statement reflects both of our views.

The Prison Litigation Reform Act was specifically designed to protect the Tenth Amendment powers of the sovereign states, to enforce the Guarantee Clause, and to preserve and strengthen key structural elements of the United States Constitution such as separation of powers, judicial review, and federalism. In passing the Act Congress made clear that it intended that the courts enforcing the Act scrupulously ensure that these goals be accomplished. In order to avoid any possibility of misinterpretation, we are seeking through the language contained in these amendments to clarify that stated intent.

Subsection (a)(3)(F) establishes that a state or local official, including individual state legislators, or a unit of government, is entitled to intervene as of right in a district or appellate court to challenge prisoner release orders or seek their termination. No separate time limits are included because the sponsors think it clear that a court should implement the intervention provisions in a manner that gives them their full effect by ruling in timely fashion on such motions.

Subsection (b)(3) corrects the confusing use of the word "or" to describe the limited circumstances when a court may continue prospective relief in prison conditions litigation. The amendment makes clear that a constitutional violation must be "current and ongoing". Both requirements are necessary to ensure that court orders continue only when necessary to remedy a presently occurring constitutional violation. These dual requirements thus ensure that court orders do not remain in place on the basis of a claim that a current prison condition that does not violate prisoners' Federal rights nevertheless requires a court decree to address it because the condition is somehow traceable to a prior policy that did violate Federal rights. Likewise, the clarification insures that prisoners cannot keep intrusive court orders in place based upon the theory that the government officials are "poised" to resume allegedly unlawful conduct. Congress does not presume that government officials who have been advised that a particular practice is unlawful will automatically return to an unlawful practice unless a court order remains in effect. If an unlawful practice resumes or if a prisoner is in imminent danger of a constitutional violation, the prisoner has prompt and complete remedies through a new action filed in a state or federal court and preliminary injunctive relief.

Finally, these amendments make some changes to the automatic stay provisions in the Act. Under the Act, courts are supposed to rule promptly on motions to terminate these longstanding decrees. In order to discourage delay on such motions, the Act provided that, if a court did not render a decision on the motion within 30 days, the decree was automatically stayed until the court had rendered a final decision. Unfortunately, many district courts are not ruling promptly, are keeping the decrees in effect, and are then seeking violations that justify doing so.

Courts have also been avoiding the automatic stay by saying that it is impossible to comply with because it sets up an impossible timetable and that it is therefore unconstitutional. The Department of Justice meanwhile has contended that the stay is not really automatic at all, although no court has accepted that view.

The argument that the court is being forced to rule on anything on an unrealistic timetable is incorrect because the automatic stay imposes no requirement that they rule. It only provides that if they do not rule there is no order in effect until they do so. Nevertheless, giving the court the authority to extend the time an additional 60 days should eliminate that basis for challenge. The amendments also clarify that the stay is in fact is automatic by expressly modeling it on the bankruptcy automatic stay, and they state explicitly that any order blocking the automatic stay is appealable, thereby ensuring review of the district court's action. Finally, they make clear that mandamus is available to compel a ruling if a court is simply failing to act on one of these motions.

Mr. President, I congratulate the chairman and ranking member of the Appropriations Committee for bringing this bill to the Senate. Their leadership will help break the logjam on the remaining 1998 appropriations bills, and I commend them for pushing forward.

While I support most provisions in this multi-title legislation, I must take this opportunity to register my strong disapproval of the provisions in the Foreign Operations title relating to International Family Planning.

The bill provides that for the next two years, it will include the restrictive Mexico City policy, which will prohibit U.S. international family planning assistance from going to any foreign private organization involved in certain abortion-related activities -- even though these activities are carried out with non-U.S. funds. This language will cripple the work of many of the private organizations doing the most effective work in family planning and maternal and child health. For example, organizations that seek to advise their governments on how to make abortions safer for women, in countries where abortion is legal, would be restricted from doing so if they receive U.S. money for family planning services. This restriction will only result in more dangerous health conditions for women.

The Mexico City provision does at least include a waiver provision, allowing the President to disregard the policy. However, if he chooses to exercise the waiver, the family planning account will be penalized by being reduced.

Unfortunately, this language is a compromise with those who would terminate international family planning altogether, and thus it is probably the best we can do. I commend the Senator from Vermont, Senator Leahy, for working so hard to get the best language possible at this time. However, Mr. President, this compromise must go no further. Any movement beyond the language we have included in the Senate bill will, in my view, seriously jeopardizes passsage of the legislation.

We have included the Small Business Administration reauthorization bill, a portion of the State Department authorization bill which deals with reorganization, and with authorization for the United Nations arrearages. We have included the Highway Safety and Transit Contract Authority Extensions, due to the expiration of ISTEA. We have technical corrections to the Department of Defense Authorization Act with regard to land transfer in New Mexico. And we have the agreement that deals with the census provision that was in the State-Justice-Commerce bills that passed the Senate, but it has been altered substantially. I should call attention to that.

Wendell Ford
Mr. President, may I advise my good friend, the chairman of the Appropriations Committee, that Senator Leahy has been on the floor. He has been detained just for a few minutes. He is on his way. I don't think he will take his entire 15 minutes, but I would have to hold those minutes for him, if I could.

Mr. President, the procedure, which I discussed with the majority leader, was that as soon as we completed action on the District of Columbia appropriations bill, I would be recognized for purposes of offering legislation relative to Haitian immigration. I wonder if it would be an appropriate use of this time, and I so ask unanimous consent, while awaiting Senator Leahy's arrival, to offer that legislation at this time.

Mr. President, I compliment the distinguished chairman of the Appropriations Committee, Mr. Stevens; the distinguished ranking member, Mr. Byrd; and the distinguished chairman of the Subcommittee on Foreign Operations, Mr. McConnell; and all those who worked on it. This has not been an easy time getting this bill through, partly because of holdups in the other body, holdups that tended to disregard, frankly, the democratic process and how we voted here and voted over there. Be that as it may, we have done the best with a difficult situation. I believe this bill should be passed.

The agreement on the Mexico City policy that was approved by the Appropriations Committee yesterday, is the result of weeks of tortuous negotiations. It would establish the Mexico City policy in statute for 2 years. That is a major concession to the House that is opposed by the administration. It would permit him to waive the Mexico City restrictions.

But there is a penalty if he does. Funding for family planning would be frozen at last year's level, which is the House level and $50 million below the Senate level.

Even with the waiver for the President, I believe that if the Mexico City issue were voted on separately in the Senate it would be defeated. We are including it as part of this larger package in an effort to pass the Foreign Operations conference report.

It is interesting to me that despite the fact that 5 months ago the Appropriations Committee reported and the Senate voted for $435 million for international family planning programs with no Mexico City restrictions, despite the fact that the Senate voted the same way in February, and the same way last year, despite the fact that the House and Senate Foreign Operations conferees would have overwhelmingly supported the Senate position if the House leadership had allowed them to vote on it, Members of the House are already saying that they will not accept it because it permits the President to waive the Mexico City restrictions.

Under their approach, the United States could not fund organizations that support laws to make abortion safer in countries where abortion is legal. And they expect the President, and the Secretary of State who is seen around the world as a champion for women's rights, to accept the Mexico City policy. It completely ignores reality. If they are unwilling to budge we are doomed to failure, because their approach would be vetoed. In fact, I cannot even say that the Mexico City policy with a waiver for the President, as we have done, would not be vetoed.

That is exactly what they did two years ago. The result was that funds for family planning were cut sharply. They tried it again last week, when they sent over the Mexico City policy and tried to jam it through with only Republican names on the Conference Report. They were blocked at the last minute by members of their own party.

The compromise agreement contained in this omnibus bill will make no one happy. I do not like it because it puts into law the Mexico City policy, which I strongly oppose even for two years. Others on this side feel the same way. They see that this is a major concession to the pro- Mexico City faction in the House, and they are right. The administration does not like it either.

It also means that funding for family planning remains frozen at last year's level of $385 million. That is a $180 million cut from the 1995 level. I think that is a travesty, when so many people around the world want family planning services and cannot get them. Not abortion. Family planning, so they don't have to resort to abortion.

I hope the House can improve on this approach. I would be overjoyed if they can find a way to keep the Mexico City policy out of the law entirely, without including the kind of harmful restrictions on the disbursement of family planning funds that were adopted last year. If the supporters of the Mexico City policy want it so badly, why not vote on it?

As I have said time and again, I would prefer to handle this by voting on Mexico City next year. We could agree that if it is defeated in the Senate, the funds would be disbursed on a quarterly basis through the 1998 fiscal year. I know that approach has bipartisan support in the House. In fact, the Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee has suggested that approach. Whether it could win a majority I do not know, but I encourage the House to pursue it.

I say to Chairman Stevens and I know the ranking member, Senator Byrd, and to the Senator from Vermont, thank you for working so hard on this international family planning issue. The Senator is so correct when he says that the Senate has spoken, the House has spoken, and suddenly we find ourselves faced with a situation where the funds for family planning on an international scale will be withheld.

I say to my friend, for the Record, because I think it is very important and a lot of people are counting on us, can our friend from Vermont assure us that this agreement that he has garnered working with Senator McConnell is, in fact, the best he thinks he can get at this time?

It is, but it is not what I would want. I would prefer to be far closer to what the Senate has voted on time and time and time again.

I understand the realities of the situation, though, and this is where we are. The irony is that those who are holding up family planning money, claiming they are doing it because of their opposition to abortion, are assuring that there will be more abortions in the countries we send the family planning money to.

The family planning money, in so many of these countries, has provided a strong alternative to abortion, because many countries use abortion as a method of birth control. Our family planning money would cut down abortions. It has been proven.

For the life of me, I cannot understand this topsy-turvy, "Alice in Wonderland," view of cutting family planning money and saying we are trying to stop abortions, because its does nothing of the kind. In fact, when people have access to family planning, the abortions go down.

I want to thank the Senate for its consideration of the desire of the Appropriations Committee to finish this work for this Congress. We had hoped that we would pass 13 separate appropriations bills. That has not been possible. But we have taken the opportunity to put two of the bills that have not been finished on this bill -- that managed by Senator Faircloth and Senator Boxer, with the hope that we could resolve the differences with the House. It will go to the House now as an amendment to the House bill. It is an omnibus appropriations bill now. And the House will work its will on it. I am hopeful that it will decide to send the bill to the President.

In any event, it is my understanding we will soon be presented with a continuing resolution. The continuing resolution in effect now would expire at midnight tonight. The one I expect to be received by the Senate will expire tomorrow night. So we are hopeful that we will be able to resolve the differences between the House and the Senate by tomorrow night with regard to the matters under this bill.
