Call 354-6060 CONGRESS page 75 ifying to Jewish activists were the results of a behind- the-scenes effort to protect funds for the Office of Refu- gee Resettlement (ORR), an agency that jointly works with voluntary groups to resettle refugees from around the world, including the former Soviet Union. For months, the Council of Jewish Federations, the A- merican Jewish Committee, the New York Association for New Americans, HIAS and other Jewish groups fought cuts that would have crippled the matching grant programs that have been a key to resettling Soviet Jews in the U.S. Last week, a compromise version of the measure fund- ed ORR at $381 million — less than most Jewish activ- ists wanted, but more than they expected. Another measure that could affect Jews from the ex-Soviet Union passed as part of the foreign aid bill — a two-year extension of the Lautenberg Amendment, a measure that clarifies stan- dards for assigning refugee status to certain groups, in- cluding Jews from the for- mer USSR. This could be a critical safety valve for Jews if con- ditions in that part of the world deteriorate. The news was not as good on the administration's pro- posed sale of 72 F-15 jet air- craft to Saudi Arabia. Despite several "resolutions of disapproval" introduced near the end of the session, Congress show- ed little interest in stopping the sale —whiCh the White House said was the only thing standing between thousands of aerospace workers and the unemploy- ment lines. Rep. Howard Berman, D- Calif., and Rep. David Obey, D- Wis., urged their col- leagues to block the sale be- cause it could contribute to another deadly Middle East arms race. Other legislators hoped to link the sale to a Saudi decision to repudiate the Arab boycott against Is- rael. But in the end, there was almost no interest in block- ing the sale only weeks be- fore the election. With no legal impedi- ments now existing regard- ing the F-15 deal, Rep. Wayne Owens is circulating a letter that asks the White House to impose some addi- tional conditions on the sale and to provide legislators with an exact accounting of what equipment will be of- fered on the F-15s. The letter also demands regular updates to Congress on what is being done to get the Saudis to drop the eco- nomic boycott against Isra- el. Several Jewish groups, led by the National Council of Jewish Women, also lost the battle to overturn the ad- ministration's "gag rule," the regulation that bans abortion counseling in federally funded clinics. Both houses passed measures lifting the ban. But late last week, the House failed by 10 votes to override a presidential veto. "This will have an im- mediate impact on women's lives," said Sammie Mo- shenberg, Washington di- rector for NCJW. "The ram- ifications of censoring the speech of medical profes- sionals are very dangerous." Congress also could not override another bill that many Jewish groups sup- ported: President Bush's veto of the family and medi- cal leave act. The measure would have provided unpaid leave for workers with fami- ly emergencies. ❑ New Deadlines The Jewish News is permanently changing its local news deadline to noon Thursday for the following week's publication.
