Amendment102nd Congress
An amendment to extend prohibitions on the uses of LSC funds for certain kinds of cases to cover all public and private funds, so that LSC agencies would be prohibited from handling these kinds of cases, regardless of the source of funds. Under the amendment, non-federal funds could still be used to assist clients who are not eligible for federal assistance but not for a purpose prohibited by federal law. It also amends the definition of "alternative corporation" to make it more difficult to use mirror corporations to avoid restrictions in the bill.
