Mr. SOLOMON introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee
on Ways and Means
A BILL
To direct the President to impose certain limitations on the amount of milk
protein products that may be imported into the United States.
  Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United
  States of America in Congress assembled, That to ensure that quantities
  of milk protein products imported into the United States will not render
  ineffective, or materially interfere with, price support operations
  undertaken by the Department of Agriculture under the Agricultural Act of
  1949 (7 U.S.C. 1441 et seq.), the President shall by proclamation limit the
  quantity of milk protein products, including casein, caseinates, lactalbumin,
  and whey protein concentrates, or mixtures containing not less than 5 per
  centum of such products, which may be entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
  for consumption in any calendar year (or portion of a calendar year in the
  case of the calendar year in which this Act is enacted) during the period
  beginning on the day after the date of the enactment of this Act and ending
  December 31, 1990, to a quantity equal to 50 per centum of the average of
  the quantity of such milk protein products annually imported into the United
  States during the period beginning January 1, 1983, and ending December 1,
  1987 (or, in the case of such portion of a calendar year, a proportionately
  lesser quantity). Such proclamation shall be considered a proclamation which
  is issued by the President under section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment
  Act (7 U.S.C. 624) and which meets the requirements of such section.
