Plain-English summary
Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the financial costs of Operation Desert Shield should be equitably shared by U.S. allies; and (2) to cover such financial costs to the United States not covered by the allies, first, reductions should be made in military expenditures, and, for any remaining costs, a surtax should be imposed on high-income taxpayers.
