•HRES 191 IH
Whereas the European Commission has been highly critical
of the merger in its consideration of the facts;
Whereas the European Commission is apparently determined
to disapprove the merger to gain an unfair competitive
advantage for Airbus Industries, a government-owned air-
craft manufacturer; and
Whereas this dispute could threaten to disrupt the overall re-
lationship between the European Union and the United
States which had a two-way trade in goods and services
of approximately $366,000,000,000 in 1996: Now, there-
fore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Rep-
resentatives that—
(1) any disapproval by the European Commis-
sion of the merger of the Boeing Company and
McDonnell Douglas would constitute an unwar-
ranted and unprecedented interference in a United
States business transaction that would directly
threaten thousands of American aerospace jobs and
potentially put many more jobs at risk on both sides
of the Atlantic; and
(2) the President should take such actions as
he considers to be appropriate to protect United
States interests in connection with this matter.

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
JULY 28, 1997
Mr. DINGELL (for himself, Mr. MARKEY, and Ms. LOFGREN) submitted the
following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Commerce
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that
the Federal Government should not withhold universal
service support payments.
Resolved,
SECTION 1. FINDINGS.
The House of Representatives finds the following:
(1) Congress reaffirmed the importance of uni-
versal service support for telecommunications serv-
ices by passing the Telecommunications Act of 1996.
(2) The Telecommunications Act of 1996 re-
quired the Federal Communications Commission to
preserve and advance universal service based on the
following principles:
•HRES 200 IH
(A) Quality services should be available at
just, reasonable, and affordable rates.
(B) Access to advanced telecommuni-
cations and information services should be pro-
vided in all regions of the Nation.
(C) Consumers in all regions of the Na-
tion, including low-income consumers and those
in rural, insular, and high-cost areas, should
have access to telecommunications and informa-
tion services, including interexchange services
and advanced telecommunications and informa-
tion services, that are reasonable comparable to
those services provided in urban areas and that
are available at rates that are reasonably com-
parable to rates charged for similar services.
(D) All providers of telecommunications
services should make an equitable and non-
discriminatory contribution to the preservation
and advancement of universal service.
(E) There should be specific, predictable,
and sufficient Federal and State mechanisms to
preserve and advance universal service.
(F) Elementary and secondary schools and
classrooms, health care providers, and libraries
•HRES 200 IH
should have access to advanced telecommuni-
cations services.
(3) Federal and State universal conditions are
administered by an independent, non-Federal entity
and are not deposited into the Federal Treasury and
therefore not available for Federal appropriations.
(4) The committee of conference on H.R. 2015,
the budget reconciliation bill, is considering propos-
als that would withhold Federal and State universal
service funds in the year 2002.
(5) The withholding of billions of dollars of uni-
versal service support payments will mean significant
rate increases in rural and high-cost areas and will
deny qualifying schools, libraries, and rural health
facilities discounts directed under the Telecommuni-
cations Act of 1996.
SEC. 2. SENSE OF HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
It is the sense of the House of Representatives that
the committee of conference on the bill H.R. 2015 should
not manipulate, modify, or impair universal service sup-
port as a means to achieve a balanced Federal budget or
achieve Federal budget savings.
