Provo mother needs money for new liver A Provo woman is suffering a chronic liver disease and will die if she doesnt get a new liver. But she needs $125,000 before the hospital will even put her on the donor list. Laurel Bjornberg, mother of four young children, has chronic hepatitis. Doctors have told her she will die if she doesnt get a new liver within the year. But, in order to be placed on the waiting list for liver transplants, she needs to come up with half of the $250,000 fee. Although she has insurance, it doesnt cover transplants. At age 35, Bjornberg is just one year away from completing a Congress votes to give surplus to governments The U.S. House of Representatives voted on an amendment that would prohibit surplus property from being given away to foreign nations without first being made available to state, county and municipal governments. The amendment, offered to the Fiscal Year 1992 Foreign Aid Authorization Bill, will give state and local governments priority over foreign governments in obtaining surplus heavy construction equipment from the Department of Defense and other agencies. The amendment was offered by U.S. Rep. Gene Taylor and passed the Congress on a voice vote after an attempt to kill the vote. amendment failed on During debate of the amendment on the floor of the House, members estimated that percent of federal surplus property disappears before it is ever made available to local communities.

The equipment is transferred in the form of humanitarian assistance or sold at bargain prices to foreign governments. "This is wonderful news for the State of Utah and for the American taxpayer", Baid Bill Arseneau, who directs the Federal Surplus Program for Utah, has been working for this type of legislation for nearly three years. "This new legislation reestablishes state and load governments priority over heavy road equipment that is badly needed throughout the state," had said. Taylors amendment directs the Department of Defense to continue to offer humanitarian assistance in the form of food, medical supplies and tents. Transfer of heavy equipment, however, will be considered a form of economic assistance that is reserved first for our own country. Currently the Department of Defense is releasing 25 road graders per month from the Tooele Army Depot alone, Arseneau said. 6.
