 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

National Capital Transportation Amendments of 1989 - Amends the National Capital Transportation Act of 1969 to authorize appropriations to the Secretary of Transportation for completion of the Adopted Regional System (Washington Metrorail System). Requires local participating governments to provide a matching share equal to at least one-third of the Federal share of completion costs.

Directs the Secretary to establish a program requiring the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority to test its employees who are responsible for safety-sensitive mass transportation functions for the illegal use of controlled substances.

Requires the Transit Authority to report to the Congress on rail system contracts it enters into with foreign entities in FY 1991 and 1992 which are subject to Buy American provisions of specified Federal laws or which meet such provisions but are in violation of an international agreement to which the United States is a party. Requires the Secretary to bar individuals determined to have fraudulently used "Made in America" labels from receiving a Federal contract with the transit Authority for its rail system for from three to five years.

Prohibits a foreign government from receiving a rail system contract from the Transit Authority if such government unfairly, significantly, and persistently discriminates, in government procurement, against U.S. products and services and such discrimination results in identifiable harm to U.S. businesses.
