House Roll Call 151, 99th Congress · June 18, 1985

TO AMEND THE MAVROULES SUBSTITUTE AMENDMENT FOR THE DICKINSON AMENDMENT TO H R 1872. THE DICKINSON AMENDMENT HALTS PRODUCTION AND DEPLOYMENT OF MX MISSILES AT 50, AND MAKES FURTHER PRODUCTION AND DEPLOYMENT OF SUCH MISSILES CONTINGENT UPON THE WILLINGNESS OF THE SOVIET UNION TO NEGOTIATE ARMS REDUCTIONS IN GOOD FAITH, AS DETERMINED BY THE CONGRESS. THE MAVROULES SUBSTITUTE LIMITS MX MISSILE DEPLOYMENT TO 40 MISSILES AND REDUCES THE MX AUTHORIZATION TO $921 MILLION FOR BASING COSTS FOR THE 40 MISSILES. THE BENNETT AMENDMENT TERMINATES THE MX MISSILE PROGRAM BY ELIMINATING ALL 1986 PROCUREMENT FUNDING AND ALL UNOBLIGATED PRIOR-YEAR APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE PROGRAM, AND REQUIRES THAT FUNDS SAVED BE USED FOR CONVENTIONAL WEAPONS. (MOTION FAILED)
