ECONOMIC SUPPORT FUND ASSISTANCE FOR ISRAEL
SEC. 517. The Congress finds that progress on the
peace process in the Middle East is vitally important to
United States security interests in the region. The Con-
gress recognizes that, in fulfilling its obligations under the
Treaty of Peace Between the Arab Republic of Egypt and
the State of Israel, done at Washington on March 26,
1979, Israel incurred severe economic burdens. Further-
more, the Congress recognizes that an economically and
militarily secure Israel serves the security interests of the
United States, for a secure Israel is an Israel which has
the incentive and confidence to continue pursuing the
peace process. Therefore, the Congress declares that it is
the policy and the intention of the United States that the
funds provided in annual appropriations for the Economic
Support Fund which are allocated to Israel shall not be
less than the annual debt repayment (interest and prin-
cipal) from Israel to the United States Government in rec-
ognition that such a principle serves United States inter-
ests in the region.

involuntary sterilization as a means of family planning.
None of the funds made available to carry out part I of
the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended, may be
obligated or expended for any country or organization if
the President certifies that the use of these funds by any

ulation, Development Assistance and to the need for in-
formed voluntary family planning.

ing the government of Bosnia-Hercegovina have
more than one thousand battle tanks, armored vehi-
cles, and artillery pieces.
HR 4426 RS
(3) Because the United Nations arms embargo
is serving to sustain the military advantage of the

go.

embargo, or to a unilateral lifting of the arms embargo
by the President of the United States, against Bosnia-

ity provided in subsection (b), and every 60 days there-

sistance Act of 1961, as amended, may be used to provide
up to $25,000,000 of commodities and services to the

POLICY ON TERMINATING THE ARAB LEAGUE BOYCOTT
OF ISRAEL
SEC. 548. (a) FINDINGS.—The Congress finds that—
(1) since 1948 the Arab countries have main-
tained a primary boycott against Israel, refusing to
do business with Israel;
(2) since the early 1950s the Arab League has
maintained a secondary and tertiary boycott against
American and other companies that have commercial
ties with Israel;
(3) the boycott seeks to coerce American firms
by blacklisting those that do business with Israel
and harm America’s competitiveness;
(4) the United States has a longstanding policy
opposing the Arab League boycott and United
States law prohibits American firms from providing
information to Arab countries to demonstrate com-
pliance with the boycott;
(5) with real progress being made in the Middle
East peace process and the serious confidence-build-
ing measures taken by the State of Israel an end to
the Arab boycott of Israel and of American compa-
HR 4426 RS
nies that have commercial ties with Israel is long
overdue and would represent a significant con-
fidence-building measure; and
(6) in the interest of Middle East peace and
free commerce, the President must take more con-
crete steps to press the Arab states to end their
practice of blacklisting and boycotting American
companies that have trade ties with Israel.
(b) POLICY.—It is the sense of the Congress that—
(1) the Arab League countries should imme-
diately and publicly renounce the primary boycott of
Israel and the secondary and tertiary boycott of
American firms that have commercial ties with Is-
rael and
(2) the President should—
(A) take more concrete steps to encourage
vigorously Arab League countries to renounce
publicly the primary boycotts of Israel and the
secondary and tertiary boycotts of American
firms that have commercial relations with Israel
as a confidence-building measure;
(B) take into consideration the participa-
tion of any recipient country in the primary
boycott of Israel and the secondary and tertiary
boycotts of American firms that have commer-
HR 4426 RS
cial relations with Israel when determining
whether to sell weapons to said country;
(C) report to Congress on the specific
steps being taken by the President to bring
about a public renunciation of the Arab primary
boycott of Israel and the secondary and tertiary
boycotts of American firms that have commer-
cial relations with Israel; and
(D) encourage the allies and trading part-
ners of the United States to enact laws prohib-
iting businesses from complying with the boy-
cott and penalizing businesses that do comply.

the Committees on Appropriations that the termination of
assistance to a country or a significant change in cir-
