I wish to first thank the distinguished chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, Senator Stevens, for his leadership in this area. This is a tough issue. It is an important issue. It is an issue that has come to the floor with much heated debate and exchange. But I wish in just a minute to try to put some perspective on what we are doing here.

Chuck Hagel

First, our economy is connected to all economies of the world. When Asian markets go down and currencies are devalued, that means very simply that we in the United States cannot sell our products in Asia. Asia has represented over the last few years the most important new export opportunity for all of the United States -- not just commodities and agriculture, but all exports. What we are doing today is connected to all parts of the world. We understand something very fundamental about markets and that is that markets respond to confidence. We in the United States -- because it is, in fact, in our best interests to participate and lead, not to bail people out, not the IMF bailing anybody out, but what we are doing through a very deliberate businesslike approach, an approach through the IMF established 50 years ago -- are participating in a loan process where this country has never lost $1. We ourselves have used this.

Madam President, we are about to complete action on the supplemental appropriation for the International Monetary Fund. I want to thank the chairman of the Foreign Operations Subcommittee, Senator McConnell, and Senator Hagel, who have worked hard to reach agreement on compromise IMF language that the Treasury Department can support.

The amendment we are about to vote on provides the full amount requested by the President for the IMF, including $3.4 billion for the New Arrangements to Borrow, and $14.5 billion for the quota increase. None of this money costs the U.S. Treasury. It is repaid with interest. In the event of a default, it is backed up by IMF gold reserves.

This amendment is not perfect. Few are. It does not directly address certain issues I am concerned about, including workers' rights, military spending, and the environment. Neither the IMF nor the Treasury Department have worked aggressively enough to ensure that IMF loans do not promote exploitation of workers, subsidize excessive military spending, or result in environmental harm. I would have strongly preferred conditional language on those issues similar to the economic and trade conditions that are in the bill. However, that was explicitly rejected by the Republican side. I am encouraged, however, that language on these issues is included in the House bill, and will be discussed in the conference. I also want to credit Senator Wellstone, whose amendment addresses these concerns.

I should also mention that the McConnell-Hagel amendment does require further progress on information disclosure by the IMF, an area that I have worked on for many years as it relates to all the international financial institutions. The World Bank has made considerable progress on this, but the IMF has lagged behind. In some instances there are legitimate reasons for protecting the confidentiality of IMF documents. But the presumption should favor disclosure. Secretary Rubin has indicated that he intends to press the IMF harder to expand public access to IMF documents. That should be a priority, because that is how we will ultimately deal most effectively with the other types of concerns I have mentioned. A process that is open to public scrutiny tends to result in better decisions.

Mr. President, the IMF has a reputation for being an arrogant, secretive organization that has too often bailed out corrupt governments. There is some truth to that. But I am also convinced that as the world's leading economic power the United States has a multitude of interests in a strong IMF. Millions of American jobs depend on exports. The IMF plays an important role in limiting the adverse impact of major financial crises. This amendment, for the first time that I am aware of, seeks to address some of the concerns that the IMF has been too eager to bail out corrupt governments, or governments whose trade policies have discriminated against American companies. Given the difficulty the Treasury Department encountered in getting this IMF funding passed in a form that Treasury could accept, it is clear that unless the IMF follows through on the reforms the Congress is insisting on US support for the IMF will soon evaporate.

Finally, I want to mention one other issue that has concerned me for some time, and which has also been a problem at the World Bank and the other international financial institutions. That is the lack of significant numbers of women in IMF managerial positions, and the lack of adequate grievance procedures to effectively respond to cases of harassment, retaliation, and gender discrimination. The IMF is particularly at fault in these areas. The statistics show that women have been systematically denied advancement at the IMF. The grievance process, while perhaps measuring up to a standard of years gone by, today fails to afford the due process that is necessary to deter abuse of power, particularly at an institution that is immune from the court system. This is an urgent problem which affects morale and the quality of IMF operations, and should be treated as a priority by IMF management as well as the Treasury Department. The Appropriations Committee first called attention to the problem of gender discrimination at the IMF in 1992, and there has been far too little progress since then.

Madam President, the IMF funding has been attached to S. 1768, the Bosnia, Iraq and Domestic Disaster Relief supplemental bill, because a majority of senators believe, as Senator Stevens, the Chairman of the Appropriations Committee has urged, that the IMF funding should be sent to the President on whichever supplemental bill the Congress completes action on first. We have agreed that if the House sends us a separate IMF supplemental bill we can choose to go to conference on that. But there is no requirement that we do so. Our primary concern is that the Congress complete action on the IMF as soon as possible and send it to the President for signature.

Madam President, I rise to discuss the recent vote the Senate conducted on the provision of U.S. funding to the International Monetary Fund. With that vote, this chamber approved the appropriation of over $18 billion with a single vote. Given the size of this appropriation, I believe it is critical to spell out exactly why Senators voted as they did.

I opposed this amendment for several reasons. First and foremost, the IMF has a very poor track record in its promotion of economic growth. According to Johns Hopkins University economist Steve Hanke, Few nations graduate from IMF emergency loans. Most stay on the IMF dole for years on end." Indeed, one study of IMF lending practices in 137 mostly developing countries from 1965 to 1995 found less than one-third have graduated from IMF loan programs. In fact, the IMF often encourages loan recipient nations to implement policies that further reduce economic growth. These policy recommendations have included raising tax rates, devaluing currencies, delaying regulatory reforms, and a host of additional austerity measures that compound nations' economic distress. Unless the IMF changes these counter-productive policies, I see no reason to put more American taxpayer dollars at risk.

Second, this IMF bailout for Asia is entirely unprecedented. All previous IMF bailouts, including that of Mexico, have been of the governments and central banks to stabilize their macroeconomic conditions. This bailout, in contrast, is a microeconomic bailout to restore the solvency of clearly insolvent financial institutions. Furthermore, the next largest bailout the IMF ever conducted was of Mexico at $17 billion. The Indonesian bailout package currently being negotiated tops $30 billion, while the Korean package comes in at over $57 billion.

Third, the IMF bailout is simply not needed. The Asian financial crisis is essentially over. As usual, markets have responded more quickly than any government. The fact of the matter is, the South Koreans had a current account surplus last year, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Investors are starting to differentiate among Asian countries for degree of risk, and stock prices are rising, in Korea by over 30%. Further, the potential impact of the Asian economic situation on U.S. economic growth must be put in perspective: the 5 most afflicted Asian nations -- Korea, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Singapore -- account for only 8 percent of U.S. exports and imports.

And it is clearly not the case that the IMF will go bankrupt without these replenishment funds from the American taxpayer. The IMF has plenty of funds to cover these loans and many to come. Even after the distribution of the current bailout packages, the IMF will hold $30 billion in gold reserves, and have access to $25 billion in unused General Agreement to Borrow credits. By providing these replenishment funds, we are simply empowering the IMF to impose its counterproductive economic policies on yet more desperate countries.

Fourth, this bailout will be counterproductive because it will perpetuate a "moral hazard" problem within the banking industry, a problem it will take years to overcome. Without doubt, this bailout package is being pushed in order to restore confidence in the Asian banking system (and the bad loans made by Western banks at unsound rates), a system that probably shouldn't be restored in the first place because of its inherent flaws -- flaws that the IMF bailout does not address at all.

The provision of these funds will therefore perpetuate and intensify the moral hazard for private banking started by the Mexican bailout. Arguing that the Mexicans repaid their debt misses the point -- if credit card companies and finance houses had been forced to eat their losses in Mexico, they would have exercised better elementary judgment regarding the over-investment policies of Asia that led to this crisis.

The IMF is essentially a huge bureaucracy populated by the last remaining socialists in the world. The reforms to IMF lending practices that are needed to address economic problems in Asia and elsewhere would require the IMF to support economic policies that are anathema to its Directors and to its fundamental philosophy -- cutting tax rates, promoting sound monetary policies, cutting government regulation, allowing banks and firms to fail, and requiring private investors to eat their losses. Unless we reform the IMF as we know it, increasing funds to IMF will do little to help the distressed economies of the world.

Madam President, a couple of days ago I introduced formally the Agriculture Credit Restoration Act of 1998. This has now been presented in the form of an amendment to the emergency supplemental, amendment 2135. The purpose is very simple. In the 1996 farm bill a provision was added in conference that was not considered by the full Senate or by the House but was added in the conference that, in effect, precluded anybody who had a write-down or loan forgiveness from ever being eligible for a loan that was made available by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is the lender of last resort. They don't lend under any circumstances where at least three private lenders have not already denied credit and they do not lend to noncreditworthy applicants. In this particular bill we have $48 million that is set aside to increase the direct operating loan fund, which is presumably being made available to those who are most in need. But the provision that is currently in the law that this particular amendment would change precludes anyone who has had a write-down or had credit forgiveness or whatever the case may be.

In a number of instances, that occurred precisely because the U.S. Department of Agriculture discriminated against those individuals. So it is a Catch-22. The Agriculture Department acknowledges that there was past discrimination. The current Secretary of Agriculture has acknowledged this. They are very much supportive of this bill -- this amendment. It would, in effect, correct the inequity of precluding those who, by virtue of a natural disaster, a major family illness, or discrimination, from being eligible -- not necessarily getting a loan but simply being eligible -- for a loan of last resort under the Direct Operating Loan Fund.

It has created problems for many of those who had previously sought loans when they thought the money was available. We put money in last year, and most of the people who then sought the money ran into this particular roadblock. It has been approved by all Senators on the majority side, and only one Senator has yet to see the particular legislation. I hope to have that approval very shortly.

But I wanted to explain that this does not create any requirement that the U.S. Department of Agriculture grant credit to any noncreditworthy applicant. Indeed, they have to have already attempted to get credit from three private insurers. But it does correct the inequity where they were previously denied credit because of specific discrimination. We certainly do not want to be perpetuating that.

Madam President, I say to colleagues, I rise to speak against this Washington consensus. This IMF provision may pass with an overwhelming vote, but I want to just be crystal clear. We are, I think most of us, internationalists. I believe that what happens in these countries, in Asia, Indonesia, Thailand and other countries, will dramatically affect our country. I have no disagreement with that. But the IMF over and over and over again has imposed austerity measures, has depressed the wages and living conditions of people in these countries, has been in violation of statutes that are supposed to govern the IMF in relation to human rights, labor, in relation to respect for indigenous peoples, in relation to environmental protection.

What is going to happen is that these IMF measures are not going to help these countries or help our country. Countries following these IMF prescriptions are going to be forced either to import even less from our country because they do not have consumers because the people are poor -- and the people become poor because of IMF austerity measures imposed on these countries. Or these countries -- and this is another effect of IMF programs -- are going to be forced into devaluing currencies and trying to buy their way out of trouble through cheap exports, which will again end up competing against, and hurting, working families in our country.

Paul Wellstone

Madam President, yesterday I asked unanimous consent that I would have 10 minutes to speak before the final vote. I do not think it has anything to do with this other time. That, I think, is part of the Record. I had asked unanimous consent, and it was granted, that I would have 10 minutes to speak. I do not want to take time away from my other colleagues. That was the only reason I asked my colleague from Maryland.

Madam President, yesterday we did adopt an amendment I offered which I think will be helpful. It essentially says that the Secretary of the Treasury will set up an advisory committee with members from labor, the human rights community, the social justice community and the environmental community. I think eight members will meet with him -- or her -- twice a year in the future, twice a year, to monitor whether or not the IMF is living up to its own statutory mandates. Let me just simply say that Muchtar Pakpahan is a labor leader in Indonesia. He is imprisoned; he is in jail.

He is in jail because he was organizing workers for a higher minimum wage. I went through all the statutes yesterday that apply to the IMF, that are a part of the law. There is supposed to be full respect for human rights; there is supposed to be respect for internationally recognized labor rights; there is supposed to be respect for basic environmental protection provisions, and the IMF is not in compliance.

Over and over and over again, the IMF turns its gaze away from these conditions in these countries. Over and over and over again, apparently our country, this administration, turns its gaze away. I simply want to say one more time, to quote Joe Stiglitz, World Bank chief economist -- I think he is right that this Washington consensus is profoundly mistaken. I think he is right when he says the IMF goes in the opposite direction of raising wage levels, focusing on education, focusing on making sure that citizens in these countries are able to benefit from the infusion of capital, that it ought not to be just about the investors and the bankers. It ought to be about improving the living standards of people in these countries.

I think he is right to suggest that what is going to happen as a result of austerity measures imposed on these countries, as has been done in the past, there will be fewer people in these countries to consume our products. And these countries will be exporting cheaper and cheaper products into our country, again, hurting working families.

We have missed a tremendous opportunity. The United States of America and the U.S. Senate, on this vote, which I think will be an overwhelming vote in favor of this, will have missed a tremendous opportunity to be on the side of internationally recognized labor standards, to be on the side of human rights, to be on the side of environmental protection, to be on the side of improving the living standards of people in these countries. We have missed this opportunity. And I believe that this infusion of capital into the IMF, if the IMF's flawed programs are imposed on these countries, will, in fact, end up not only hurting these countries, but also hurt severely the people in our own country as well.

Despite the clear need, despite the strong statements of concern by Federal Reserve Chairman Greenspan, and by Treasury Secretary Rubin, some of our colleagues continue to miss the point. As the biggest, most open economy in the world, as the leader of the world economy and the only global superpower, the United States has a special role to play in, and a special need for, international institutions to maintain the stability and openness of the world's financial system.

Joe Biden

The problems now brought to light in Asia -- the increasing billions in international investments that flow around the globe with the stroke of a computer key, the uneven development of banking systems in newly industrializing nations -- are very real challenges to our own well-being that require serious analysis and a truly international response. They are not an annoyance that we can blissfully ignore. And they are not to be dismissed with a few ideological platitudes.

As the distinguished chairman of the Appropriations Committee stated so clearly and forcefully just yesterday, the Asian financial crisis is an "economic El Nino" that directly affects American sales overseas and jobs here at home. Our contributions to the IMF are made to protect us from the shock waves of that crisis in the Pacific, Madam President, and by denying or delaying those contributions we would only hurt ourselves.

Certainly, the IMF could well use a breath of fresh air -- more openness to develop more public understanding and trust. And it is clear that we have a long way to go to establish a sound international financial system, with the clear reporting standards and accurate data that will allow markets to operate efficiently.

Those of us who share those concerns understand the need to provide the IMF with the resources it needs right now to maintain its role as lender of last resort in the kinds of currency crises that can have truly global consequences. If we do not, weaknesses in the world's financial system will only deepen and persist. And, I must add, so will the burdens carried by those people in the affected countries that are least able to deal with them, who too often pay the price for the financial follies of others.

So congratulations are due to those who worked so hard to make sure that the funding becomes part of this bill today. I know that Senator Hagel, my colleague from the Foreign Relations and Chairman of our International Economic Affairs Subcommittee, has played a key role. And a great deal of credit must go to Senator Stevens, Chairman of the Appropriations Committee, for his indispensable leadership.

I know that there are more hurdles to clear in this process, Madam President, but I am pleased to see that this amendment has become part of the emergency appropriations bill. Just last week, when our IMF contributions seemed in real trouble, I expressed my confidence that the Senate would work quickly and responsibly to make this funding available. Today, the Senate has rewarded that confidence.

Madam President, I just want to say, I don't really have a basic quarrel with my good friend from Minnesota. I want to be on the side of environmental protection and on the side of workers' rights and on the side of human rights. The Secretary of the Treasury has committed himself to undertake a serious review of the international financial architecture. I have a lot of confidence in the Secretary of the Treasury. In fact, I think we have the best finance minister in the world in Secretary Rubin. I place great credibility in his proposals.

But you cannot remodel the emergency room at the very time the patients are being brought in to be dealt with. That is the issue that is involved in this IMF replenishment. The distinguished chairman of the committee said on yesterday that the Asian flu is the El Nino of economics, and he warned that unless we understand that, we are liable to make a big mistake. I think the distinguished Senator from Alaska was absolutely right on that point.

Now, we can argue about its programs, and I have been critical of them in the past and, indeed, even critical of them in the current context. But nevertheless, we have to do this replenishment because, if the IMF is perceived as having inadequate resources to deal with any crisis that might now emerge, it makes it more likely that the crisis will happen. If the IMF is perceived as having adequate resources, it makes it less likely that a crisis will happen because there will be an increase in confidence.

I am especially pleased that this body has rejected efforts to include requirements and conditions that would have gone too far. While the recipient countries should be required to comply with tough, fundamental changes in their economies in order to receive the assistance, the bar must not be raised so high that any hope for reaching the conditions is lost. If excessive conditions had been included -- and some Members in this body had been promoting those conditions -- why, the United States would have no leverage to insist on reforms that would lower trade barriers to American goods and end unfair subsidies for foreign businesses. That would hurt both the country in trouble and the United States as well.

I also wish to pay special thanks to Senator Hagel and to Senator Grams for their efforts in helping to craft language that I believe will certainly enable us to achieve both funding and the needed reforms. In particular, I wish to thank my good friend from Nebraska, who has worked tirelessly on this issue and deserves much, if not most, of the credit for enabling us to achieve real progress on this bill. Our neighboring States are particularly dependent on this country's implementing a consistent export policy and for the United States to provide continued leadership in stabilizing the world economy. In this regard, our farmers and ranchers and the many segments of our economy who depend on exports owe Senator Hagel a debt of gratitude.

With all due respect to my colleague from Maryland, I think this is exactly the time we should be requiring change in the IMF. We were told back during the Mexico crisis that once we got that problem solved, we would do what was necessary to address the problems in international financial institutions. We have not done that, and I make the case again. As my colleague said, he has been critical of the IMF in the past. My conclusion is the only time we can ever get action is, in fact, when there is a crisis at hand, and that is why I have felt so strongly that we needed to put conditions on that could be carried out and would be carried out.

What we are being told now, in essence, is, "We will make our best effort." The implication also is that the United States and those of us who want to put conditions on the IMF, that the United States is the only one that is interested in doing that. I disagree with that. I think there are other nations and members of the G-7 that want to see changes made.

I think we ought to insist on this. I think the first $3.5 billion was sufficient to take care of the problems; the other $14.5 billion could be made available later after changes have been made. But I am convinced now that, frankly, we didn't have the votes to go as far as I would like to go. I understand that.

Mr. President, I asked that this amendment be read in its entirety so that its simplicity is clear to the Senate. The totality of what is being asked is that the Justice Department, in negotiating with the W.R. Grace Corporation about a contaminated Superfund site in Wayne, NJ, seek fair reimbursement. We make no demands. We change no law. We cite no number. We ask that there be a fair reimbursement.

I have done this because the story of W.R. Grace and its contamination in Wayne, NJ, is a story of everything that has been wrong about environmental cleanups in our country. Since 1995 the Federal Government, has been in negotiations with W.R. Grace for reimbursements. This is a site that a private company operated for 23 years. They operated it at a profit. The Government owned no share of the land or the company. When the land was no longer useful because it was contaminated, they abandoned it and left. In the ensuing years, they have given the U.S. Government $800,000, although the U.S. taxpayers have already spent $50 million cleaning the site. It is estimated by the Army Corps of Engineers it could cost another $55 million.

Members of the Senate need to know the American taxpayers are being held accountable for $100 million in cleaning this contaminated site by the W.R. Grace Corporation and that corporation has paid only $800,000. The American taxpayers are paying this freight although they have absolutely no liability whatever as a matter of law.

For 24 months, there have been negotiations. There had been reports that there would be $50 million in reimbursements from W.R. Grace. Then it was $40 million. Last week it was $20 million. There was going to be an agreement by December. And then it was January. And then it was March.

There is no agreement. There is no reimbursement. But the people of this country are going to subsidize the environmental abuses of the W.R. Grace Corporation to the tune of $100 million. It is a disgrace.

For 18 months, the Attorney General of the United States does not have time to reach an agreement. A Member of Congress from the district, Mr. Pascrell, Senator Lautenberg, and I have urged the Attorney General to proceed to litigation. She has not done so. She did not have time to litigate or to protect the taxpayers. But within 5 minutes of the filing of this amendment, she can send a letter to Senator Gregg that this is an interference with her prerogatives.

Mr. President, if the Attorney General were protecting her prerogatives and protecting the liability of the U.S. Government and the taxpayers of this country, this amendment would not be necessary. I have a great admiration for Attorney General Reno. I like to believe and assume she has no knowledge of this affair, that members of her staff have done an enormous disservice to her, to the Justice Department, and to the taxpayers of this country. As it stands, if suit is not filed, if negotiators are not emboldened, the taxpayers of this country will subsidize a private corporation for $100 million of unnecessary expenditures.

All that I have done is offer a sense of the Senate -- not a law, a sense of the Senate -- that we would like the Attorney General to vigorously pursue these negotiations and protect the interests of the taxpayers. That is all I have asked. I do not know how the request could have been more modest. I intend to reserve the balance of my time, because it is my interest to hear the distinguished chairman respond to this request, but I want simply to say before we hear his comments that I am personally offended at the Attorney General's correspondence and deeply disappointed at its tone, its lack of cooperation, and the failure to meet the responsibilities to defend the interests of this Government in this litigation.

The Federal government is long overdue in reaching an adequate resolution of claims against W.R. Grace & Co., for the cleanup of the Wayne Superfund Site in New Jersey. There seems to be no end to the headaches experienced by the residents of Wayne Township over this site and over the lack of any settlement.

In 1984, because of the threat to the public's health from potential groundwater contamination, the site was placed on the Superfund National Priorities List and is now being managed by the Corps of Engineers under the Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP).

That same year, 1984, W.R. Grace provided a payment of $800,000 and signed an agreement with the Federal government. This agreement stated that the government can still pursue legal action against the company under applicable laws, which would include Superfund. In the meantime, cleanup costs for this site continued to escalate, costing the taxpayers millions of dollars.

As the costs continued to mount, I became convinced that the government had not done all it could to help alleviate this burden on the taxpayers. Since 1995, I have worked to get the government to bring this company to the negotiating table. In September of that year I wrote to then-Secretary of Energy Hazel O'Leary requesting that DOE consider pursuing additional funds for cleanup from private parties. At my urging, in November 1995, the Departments of Energy and Justice finally brought W.R. Grace, the former owner and operator of this site, to the table to discuss a settlement. I ask unanimous consent to have printed in the Record a copy of a letter I received from DOE in November 1995 which showed its commitment to get W.R. Grace to come to the table.

Today, I rise to reiterate my strong opposition to a final settlement that would permit W. R. Grace to escape appropriate responsibility for its share of the pollution. This amendment reminds the Attorney General that we not only want to see progress, but that we demand a settlement that adequately reimburses the taxpayers.

Mr. President, this would be, in our judgment, a very bad precedent. It would allow litigants involved in a case against the United States to come to the Senate, through their Senator, and try to obtain passage of a sense-of-the-Senate resolution that would assist them in their negotiations with the U.S. Government. Although the amendment would not be binding, it could be used in a court of law to argue the merits of the case.

I do not know much about this case other than I have discussed it with the distinguished Senator from New Jersey, but as I informed him, we have a letter from the Attorney General -- and it is signed by the Attorney General personally -- written to the chairman and ranking member of the State, Justice Commerce Subcommittee. I understand that the distinguished chairman is here. I yield to him for the balance of the time to explain further why we are opposed to the amendment.

What we are dealing with here, however, is the fact that we have been contacted by the Attorney General. Obviously, I am not the spokesman for the administration, and I would not put myself in the position of the other party, but I believe we have an obligation when we are contacted by the Attorney General. She has expressed her strong opposition to having this sense of the Senate passed during the pendency of the negotiation and litigation of this case. I think she has a very legitimate procedural position.

Now, again, I am not arguing the equities of this or the substance of the question. I am arguing that it would be inappropriate, as she represents, for the Congress to express the sense of the Senate, which would then put the administration -- specifically, the Attorney General -- in the difficult position of having the Congress interject itself in the middle of what are ongoing negotiations relative to the settlement in this case.

That is essentially a summary of the letter. It goes on to explain why the Department thinks that this will affect the litigation as it goes forward. So I rise with significant reservation about this because I recognize that the Senator from New Jersey has a very strong feeling and is trying to put forward his constituents' feelings. I believe we would be setting a very difficult, very inappropriate precedent as a Congress if we start interjecting ourselves into issues of negotiation in active litigation, where we have been advised by the Attorney General of the United States that that would negatively or inappropriately impact that litigation.

Let me conclude the debate by simply suggesting this: I think it would be regrettable if this Senate ever allows itself to be silenced in simply expressing its intentions or desires because the executive branch may have conflicting views or believe an issue is its prerogative. Ultimately, the expenditures of this Government are our responsibility.

So I want the Attorney General to be clear on this. I will shortly ask that this amendment not proceed. But this should be clear as negotiations proceed with the W.R. Grace Corporation. If it is the intention of the Justice Department to reach a settlement, whereby the taxpayers of the United States are left with this $100 million expenditure and a private corporation, which has profited by these operations, and the resulting environmental abuse, is left without making a significant contribution, I most assuredly will return to the floor of the Senate with an amendment on an appropriations bill that would cover the payment of those expenditures, and I will insist on a vote, and I will fight. I do not believe the taxpayers of this country should be subsidizing polluters. I will not stand for it. Nevertheless, in deference to my friends and colleagues from Alaska and New Hampshire, in recognition of their views, at this time I ask unanimous consent to withdraw the amendment.

Mr. President, I rise to thank the managers of this bill, Chairman Stevens and Ranking Member Byrd, as well as Senators Bond and Mikulski, for agreeing to a provision of critical importance to southern New Jersey's AIDS afflicted community. This provision allows for the administration of Housing for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) funding for four southern New Jersey counties by the State of New Jersey.

Frank R. Lautenberg

New Jersey's AIDS community has raised concerns about the current administration of HOPWA funding to four southern New Jersey counties: Camden, Gloucester, Salem, and Burlington. In order to better serve the needs of southern New Jersey's AIDS community, this provision gives the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) the statutory authority to delegate the administration of southern New Jersey's HOPWA funding to the State of New Jersey.

This provision will help improve the implementation of housing services for southern New Jersey's AIDS afflicted, and I am pleased that the managers of the fiscal year 1998 supplemental appropriations bill have agreed to include this change. Again, I thank them for their work on this matter.

Mr. President, this amendment will require the Department of Housing and Urban Development to adjust, in a manner consistent with the need, the allocation of the funding under the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS Program, the problems that occur in certain areas of New Jersey and Pennsylvania under that act.
