    Letter to Congressional Leaders Transmitting a Plan for Consolidation of
    International Broadcasting
    January 19, 1995

    Dear Mr. Chairman:
        Pursuant to the requirements of section 310(a)(2)(B) of the United
    States International Broadcasting Act of 1994 (title III, Public Law
    103-236), I am pleased to transmit a Plan for the Consolidation of
    United States Government International Broadcasting.
        The Plan reflects my continued strong commitment to the use of
    international radio and television as methods for advancing democracy
    and enlarging the community of free-market nations.
        I look forward to working with the Congress on this and other issues
    in the months ahead.
