Overview
In 1994, USAID issued PD 20 to implement Section 599 of Pub. L. 102-391 and Section 547 of Pub. L. 103-87. PD 20, following the legislation in these Appropriations Acts, established the guidelines prohibiting the use of appropriated funds for financial incentives to U.S. enterprises to relocate abroad, or for establishing or developing export processing zones (EPZs), if such activities were likely to result in the loss of jobs in the United States.
