    Letter to the Speaker of the House of Representatives Transmitting a
    Fiscal Year 2004 Budget Amendment
    September 24, 2003

    Dear Mr. Speaker:
        I ask the Congress to consider the enclosed FY 2004 budget amendment
    for International Assistance Programs. This amendment would not increase
    the budgetary resources proposed in my FY 2004 Budget.
        The details of this request are set forth in the enclosed letter
    from the Director of the Office of Management and Budget.
             Sincerely,

                                                              George W. Bush

    Note: This letter was released by the Office of the Press Secretary on
    September 25.
