H. RES. 118
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives with respect to restrict-
ing medical professionals from providing to women full and accurate
medical information on reproductive health options.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
MARCH 16, 1995
Mr. WYDEN (for himself and Mr. PORTER) submitted the following resolution;
which was referred to the Committee on Commerce
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives with
respect to restricting medical professionals from provid-
ing to women full and accurate medical information on
reproductive health options.
Whereas a past Federal policy, commonly known as the gag
rule, restricted medical professionals from counseling
women about abortion as a reproductive health option;
Whereas the gag rule interfered with the doctor-patient rela-
tionship and prohibited the provision of information that
medical professionals are ethically and legally required to
provide to their patients;
Whereas health problems stemming from diabetes, cancer, the
human immunodeficiency virus (commonly known as
HIV), hypertension, or multiple sclerosis may be
•HRES 118 IH
compounded by pregnancy and may seriously threaten
the life or health of the pregnant woman; and
Whereas restricting a medical professional’s ability to com-
municate freely with a woman about her reproductive
heath options may jeopardize a woman’s life or health
and violate ethical codes of conduct established for the
medical profession: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Rep-
resentatives that the Federal Government should not es-
tablish any policy that restricts medical professionals from
providing to women full and accurate medical information
on their reproductive health options, including the provi-
sion of nondirective abortion counseling.

In the House of Representatives, U. S.,
April 3, 1995.
Whereas on Saturday, March 25, 1995, an Iraqi court sen-
tenced 2 Americans, William Barloon and David
Daliberti, to 8 years imprisonment for allegedly entering
Iraq without permission;
Whereas the 2 men were tried, convicted, and sentenced in
what was reported to be a very brief period during that
day with no other Americans present and with their only
legal counsel having been appointed by the Government
of Iraq;
Whereas the Department of State has stated that the 2
Americans have committed no offense justifying impris-
onment and has demanded that they be released imme-
diately; and
Whereas this harsh sentence is unjustified and further dis-
tances Iraq from the international community: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives—

Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the levels for
higher education financial aid programs should not be reduced.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
MARCH 29, 1995
Mr. GORDON submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on Economic and Educational Opportunities
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that
the levels for higher education financial aid programs
should not be reduced.
Whereas having a college-educated work force is becoming
more vital to our national economic security;
Whereas college tuition is rising at a faster rate than both
national wages and inflation;
Whereas over half of all college students must finance their
educations;
Whereas millions of students use Pell Grants, Subsidized
Stafford Loans, Perkins Loans, Federal Work Study
Programs, and other Federal education programs to
make their college tuition affordable;
•HRES 122 IH
Whereas a student who borrows the maximum under the
Stafford Loan Program would have his or her loan pay-
ments increase by 20 percent for a 4-year degree, 27 per-
cent for a 4-year and master’s degree, and 48 percent for
a 4-year and Ph.D. degree if the in-school interest ex-
emption were eliminated;
Whereas a student saddled with this extra debt would have
to postpone buying a car or a home, which would hurt
the Nation’s overall economy;
Whereas these cuts would be false savings because the added
debt would cause more students to default on their loans,
raising the costs for all taxpayers; and
Whereas millions of students not able to find affordable col-
lege financing would have to postpone their education or
forego it all together: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the subsidized Stafford Loan Program
(including the in-school interest exemption), the Perkins
Loan Program, the Federal Work Study Program, the Pell
Grant Program, the Federal Supplemental Educational
Opportunity Grant Program and the State Student Incen-
tive Grant Program should not be reduced from their cur-
rent and anticipated levels.

Relating to the conflict in Kashmir.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
MARCH 29, 1995
Mr. ROHRABACHER (for himself, Mr. TORRES, Mr. MORAN, Mr. BURTON of
Indiana, Mr. PAXON, Mr. COX of California, Mr. CALVERT, Mr. WILSON,
and Mr. NETHERCUTT) submitted the following resolution; which was re-
ferred to the Committee on International Relations
RESOLUTION
Relating to the conflict in Kashmir.
Whereas a cycle of violence exists in Kashmir as a result of
the Indian Government’s refusal to permit the people of
Kashmir to exercise their right to self-determination as
promised by successive resolutions of the United Nations;
Whereas United States policy calls for a solution to the con-
flict through negotiations between India and Pakistan
taking into consideration the wishes of the people of
Kashmir and further states that it is up to the people of
Kashmir to determine who best represents their interests;
Whereas India and Pakistan have fought two wars over the
Kashmiri conflict and tensions in the region continue to
escalate;
•HRES 123 IH
Whereas India and Pakistan possess the capability to assem-
ble and deliver nuclear weapons;
Whereas reports indicate an increase in human rights abuses
against civilians in Kashmir, particularly as a result of
state sponsored terrorism by Indian paramilitary forces,
and violence used by Kashmiri militants;
Whereas the people of Kashmir have organized the all-parties
Hurriyet (Freedom) Conference, an umbrella organiza-
tion of 34 political parties, to engage in negotiations with
Indian and Pakistani authorities without precondition;
Whereas the United States Institute of Peace in January
1994, brought together representatives from the central
participants in the conflict—India, Pakistan, and Kash-
mir—to engage in a dialogue for peace; and
Whereas the United States Institute of Peace concluded that
‘‘it is essential that people of Kashmir be central partici-
pants in this political process, along with the govern-
ments and citizens of India and Pakistan.’’ and the re-
port further states that the formation of the Freedom
(Hurriyet) Conference could potentially facilitate possible
negotiations: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That—
(1) the United States condemns the use of ex-
cessive force and terrorism by Indian paramilitary
forces against civilians in Kashmir and similarly de-
nounces acts of violence by Kashmiri militants;
(2) the United States welcomes the release from
detention of Kashmiri political leaders and urges the
Government of India to take further steps to re-
