[R-KS] KS R D000401 7 Expresses the sense of the Senate that, during the forthcoming meeting of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), the Government should try to restore U.S. competitiveness in agricultural trade: (1) with particular emphasis on correcting the disparate treatment of primary and nonprimary products provided in the Subsidies Code; and (2) without reference to any existing disagreements in nonagricultural areas.
