Congress finds the following:

seq.) currently provides an exemption that allows for
Federal agencies to purchase foreign-made goods if
the goods are for use outside the United States. The
exemption applies even if American-made goods are
available.
(2) This exemption is a serious loophole, allow-
ing the use of United States tax dollars to purchase
foreign goods. In 1995, for example, the Department
of Defense alone purchased $3.8 billion in foreign-
made goods.
(3) This exemption should be ended to ensure
that American companies and American workers re-
ceive fair and equitable treatment in all Federal
Government procurement contracts.
SEC. 3. APPLICATION OF BUY AMERICAN ACT TO ARTICLES,
MATERIALS, AND SUPPLIES FOR USE OUT-
SIDE THE UNITED STATES.
The Buy American Act (41 U.S.C. 10a et seq.) is
amended—

(A) in the first sentence, by inserting be-
fore the period at the end the following: ‘‘, in-
cluding for use outside the United States’’; and
(B) in the second sentence, by striking out
‘‘with respect to articles, materials, or supplies
for use outside the United States, or’’; and
(2) in section 4(b)—
(A) by striking out paragraph (1); and
(B) by redesignating paragraphs (2) and
(3) as paragraphs (1) and (2), respectively.
Æ
December 31 of the calendar year in which this Act is
enacted.
SEC. 3. PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN FUND.
(a) REPEAL OF PROVISIONS CONCERNING PRESI-
DENTIAL CAMPAIGN FUND.—The following provisions of
such Code are hereby repealed:
(1) Part VIII of subchapter A of chapter 61 of
subtitle F of such Code (relating to designation of
income tax payments to Presidential Election Cam-
paign Fund).
(2) Subtitle H (relating to financing of Presi-
dential election campaigns).

(1) TABLE OF PARTS.—The table of parts of
subchapter A of chapter 61 of subtitle F of such
Code is amended by striking the item relating to
part VIII.
(2) TABLE OF SUBTITLES.—The table of sub-
titles of such Code is amended by striking the item
relating to subtitle H.
(c) EFFECTIVE DATES.—
(1) DESIGNATION OF INCOME TAX PAYMENTS
TO
FUND.—The amendment made by subsection
(a)(1) applies to taxable years beginning after De-
cember 31, 1996.
(b) USE OF FUNDS.— 
(1) GRANTS.—

paragraph (2), the funds available under this 
section shall be used to award grants to entities 
that conduct innovative medical research and 
development to provide faster cures for medical 
ailments and diseases. 
(B) APPLICATION.—An entity seeking to 
receive a grant under this paragraph shall sub-
mit an application at such time and in such 
form as the Director may reasonably require. 
(2) PRIZES.—The Director may use not more 
than 15 percent of the funds available under this 
section to award monetary prizes to entities that 
have used their own funding and research facilities 
to produce innovative results in medical research 
and development. 
(c) ANNUAL AWARD OF GRANTS AND PRIZES.—To 
the extent funds are available, the Director of the National 
Institutes of Health shall award the grants and prizes 
under this section at least once during each fiscal year, 
with the first grants and prizes to be awarded within 180 
days after the date of the enactment of this Act.
