 NOTIFICATION OF THE PRESIDENT'S INTENT TO ADD THE REPUBLIC OF SENEGAL 
 TO THE LIST OF LEAST-DEVELOPED BENEFICIARY DEVELOPING COUNTRIES UNDER 
       THE GENERALIZED SYSTEM OF PREFERENCES (GSP) PROGRAM--PM 54

  The PRESIDING OFFICER laid before the Senate the following message 
from the President of the United States which was referred to the 
Committee on Finance:

To the Congress of the United States:
  In accordance with section 502(f)(1)(B) of the Trade Act of 1974, as 
amended (the ``1974 Act'') (19 U.S.C. 2462(f)(1)(B)), I am notifying 
the Congress of my intent to add the Republic of Senegal (Senegal) to 
the list of least-developed beneficiary developing countries under the 
Generalized System of Preferences program. After considering the 
criteria set forth in section 502(c) of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 
2462(c)), I have determined that it is appropriate to extend least-
developed beneficiary developing country benefits to Senegal.
                                                        Barack Obama.  
The White House, June 29, 2012.
