This bill grants the President the authority to suspend all United States assistance to the Government of the Republic of Honduras. This action would be triggered specifically if Honduras demonstrates an unwillingness or refusal to continue hosting U.S. military and civilian personnel at Soto Cano Air Base , resulting in their redeployment. The legislation aims to prohibit financial support to Honduras under these conditions, emphasizing the importance of continued cooperation on security matters. The authorized suspension encompasses any assistance extended , including that provided under the bilateral military assistance agreement established on May 20, 1954, and any subsequent modifications. This provision underscores a potential consequence for Honduras should it cease to facilitate the presence of U.S. personnel.
