Amendment originally sought to reauthorize the exemption for El Salvador from the restriction in U.S. law on the use of foreign assistance funds for training foreign police forces. \ As amended by the McCurdy amendment (A024), funds to be used in the training of Salvadoran security forces must come from U.S. assistance designated for military aid; civilian law enforcement personnel must train Salvadoran personnel; the purchase of additional firearms by the Salvadoran security forces was prohibited; and a Presidential certification that progress in eliminating human rights abuses in El Salvador was required before assistance could be obligated.
