Included within Senate Report 107-219, and repeated in Chairman Stevens' Overview and Summary of his amendment to H.J. Res. 2, the Omnibus Appropriations Bill, is report language stating the Appropriations Committee's strong support for the Clean Water for the Americas Partnership. Does the Chairman of the Foreign Operations Subcommittee share my expectation that the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) will fund the Clean Water for the Americas Partnership at $10 million for fiscal year 2003?
