Stenholm (D-TX) motion that the House conferees concur with the Senate amendment to impose certain restrictions on the activities of lawyers receiving money from the Legal Services Corporation (LSC). The LSC has strayed from its original mandate -- providing for the day-to-day legal needs of the poor -- by getting involved in lobbying, union-organizing, political redistricting, and harassment of farmers. | |||||

Edwards (R-OK) motion to recommend to the House Foreign Affairs Committee the resolution to condemn Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega's action to suspend the cease-fire in that government's civil war with contra guerrillas and to call on both the government and the contras to abide by the cease-fire, with instructions to amend it with a substitute containing the text of the Senate resolution which denounces Ortega's announced suspension and affirms U.S. intentions to continue supplying non-military aid to the Freedom Fighters until Feb. 28, 1990. | |||||

Adoption of the rule to provide for House floor consideration of the bill to make appropriations for foreign aid programs in fiscal 1990. The rule would have allowed consideration of an amendment to withhold 30 percent of U.S. military aid to El Salvador until after April 1. |
