Plain-English summary
Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) if the United States is to provide the majority of troops in the multinational force in the Persian Gulf region, the President should wage an intensive campaign to obtain the dollar commitments to support Operation Desert Shield already made by U.S. allies and to obtain pledges from such allies of an increased commitment of funds; and (2) those countries that benefit from the increased deployment of U.S. troops to such region and the increased U.S. commitment of funds to such Operation should honor their current monetary pledges in full and stand ready to pledge additional assistance should war occur.
