                                 A BILL

 
    To rescind the authority of the President to engage in certain 
activities agreed to in exchange for votes for the North American Free 
                  Trade Agreement Implementation Act.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``NAFTA Pork Repeal Act of 1994''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) several reputable publications have reported numerous 
        instances in which Members of Congress traded their votes for 
        the North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act in 
        exchange for commitments by the President or his 
        representatives to support special projects or undertake 
        administrative actions for the benefit of districts represented 
        by those Members, at the expense of United States taxpayers and 
        consumers;
            (2) the large number and notoriety of these deals is 
        unprecedented in recent history; and
            (3) such practices erode public confidence in the integrity 
        of the legislative process, contribute to a growing climate of 
        suspicion, cynicism, and scorn for elected representatives, and 
        impede the ability of the President to win support for his 
        programs on the basis of their intrinsic merit.
