SEC. 907. ASSISTANCE FOR DISASTER MITIGATION EF-
FORTS. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 
(1) The devastating impacts of natural disasters 
can be mitigated by assisting communities to build in 
safer locations, construct sturdier dwellings, enforce 
sound building codes and practices, and protect nat-
ural ecosystems. 
(2) By 2050, two billion people are expected to 
be especially vulnerable to floods due to growing pop-
ulations, indiscriminate logging, rapid urbanization, 
and increasing development along coasts and in other 
hazardous regions. 
(3) According to a study by the World Bank and 
the United States Geological Survey during the 1990s,
202
$40 billion invested in preventive measures could 
have saved $280 billion in disaster relief funds and 
saved countless lives. 
(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Congress 
that the Secretary of State, in consultation with the heads 
of other appropriate departments and agencies of the Gov-
ernment of the United States, should develop an initiative 
to encourage the use of disaster mitigation techniques, in-
cluding techniques described in subsection (a)(1), by foreign 
governments in regions considered especially vulnerable to 
natural disasters. 
(c) AMENDMENT TO THE FOREIGN ASSISTANCE ACT 
OF 1961.—Section 491(b) of the Foreign Assistance Act of

preparedness under the preceding sentence shall include as-
sistance to encourage the use of disaster mitigation tech-

ing codes and practices, and protect natural ecosystems.’’.

204
SEC. 910. ASSISTANCE TO ADDRESS NON-INFECTIOUS DIS-
EASES IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES. 
(a) STATEMENT OF POLICY.—Congress declares the fol-
lowing: 
(1) Medical evidence indicates that non-infec-
tious diseases, like heart disease and obesity, are on 
the rise worldwide. 
(2) In response to these statistics, the current al-
location of funds appropriated to the United States 
Agency for International Development for Child Sur-
vival and Maternal Health, Vulnerable Children, 
HIV/AIDS, Infectious Diseases, Reproductive Health 
and Family Planning, and the Global Fund to Fight 
AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria does not address 
noninfectious diseases. 
(b) AUTHORIZATION OF ASSISTANCE.—The President, 
acting through the Administrator of the United States 
Agency for International Development, is authorized to pro-
vide assistance, on such terms and conditions as the Presi-

CHAPTER 2—PART II OF THE FOREIGN 
ASSISTANCE ACT OF 1961
SEC. 921. ECONOMIC SUPPORT FUND ASSISTANCE FOR 
EGYPT. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following:
205
(1) Despite more than $28 billion in economic 
assistance provided by the United States to Egypt 
since 1975, Egypt’s economy and educational systems 
are underdeveloped and democratic development re-
mains extremely limited. Egypt remains near the bot-
tom of many indices of growth and human develop-
ment. 
(2) Egypt’s economic troubles, if not addressed 
through programs to develop Egypt’s private sector, 
could destabilize the country. 
(3) United States programs to promote growth 
in Egypt, including traditional development assist-
ance as well as programs that attempt to link dis-
bursement of cash assistance to the adoption of eco-
nomic reforms by the Government of Egypt, have had, 
at best, mixed success. 
(4) The United States has provided more than 
$32 billion in military assistance to Egypt since 
1979. 
(5) Egypt is currently at peace with all its 
neighbors. 
(6) Egypt and the United States entered into an 
agreement in March 2005, whereby Egypt undertook 
to accomplish certain reform-oriented policies pri-
marily related to its financial sector, and the United
206
States undertook, subject to its constitutional proc-
esses, to provide Egypt with cash assistance. This pro-
gram of financial reform is important and should 
continue, supported by assistance in the form of cash 
transferred from the United States, but not in 
amounts in excess of amounts already agreed to and 
not for lesser policy reforms than have already been 
agreed to. 
(7) The model of an agreement for policy change 
between the United States and Egypt, similar but not 
identical to, the concept of a ‘‘Millennium Challenge’’ 
compact that emphasizes performance and outcomes, 
would be a way to reinvigorate a program for the de-
velopment of the Egyptian economy that has lan-
guished for years, and would give more Egyptians a 
stake in the proper planning and execution of pro-
grams to assist in their country’s development. 
(b) STATEMENT OF POLICY.—It shall be the policy of 
the United States—
(1) to acknowledge that—
(A) threats to Egypt’s stability derive far 
more from domestic problems, such as inadequate 
economic growth, deficient educational and 
health-care systems, and lack of political free-
dom, than from external dangers; and
