The fundraising mailing says it is imperative that the United States not lift the economic sanctions imposed by Congress in 1986 until apartheid is totally dismantled. But all signs point to the inevitability of the Bush Administration moving quickly -- within the next 60 days -- to terminate all sanctions against South Africa. South African President de Klerk has been giving the impressing that apartheid is being dismantled, but Klerk is hoping no one reads beyond the headlines. TransAfrca will be making sure that the real truth is known. The Anti-Apartheid Act of 1986 gives Congress power to pass a joint resolution, overriding the President if it believes that presidential elimination of sanctions is unjustified based on the facts. Postcards are enclosed to Senate Majority Leader Mitchell and House Speaker Foley urging that they adopt such a joint resolution because the conditions required by the sanctions act have not been met. The mailing includes SUMMARY STATEMENT OF RANDALL ROBINSON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, TRANSAFRICA Before the House Foreign Affairs Committee Subcommittee on Africa, April 30,1991.
