General  Information

Enacted: March 22, 1995
Bill Number: S. 1 (114th Congress
Sponsor: Sen. Kempthorne, Dirk [R-ID] 
Note: This was a large priority of the newly elected 104th Congress, a result of  significant numbers of newly elected Republican Members of Congress, enough to switch majority control of both Houses of Congress to that party’s control. Hence UMRA, as it is colloquially known, was one of the first bills enacted — with the support of then President Bill Clinton.
