by relying on the other part of the Boland Amendment utilizando la otra parte de la Enmienda Boland

Explanation:
The main part of the amendment was to prohibit covert assistance. The "other part" was to provide overt assistance to neighboring countries. That is the part the White House "relied on" (utilized), at least publicly.

House Amendment 461 to HR 2968 is summarized by the Thomas Bill Summary & Status (under Amendments) as:

"An amendment to prohibit covert assistance for military operations in Nicaragua and to authorize overt interdiction assistance. The overt interdiction assistance consists of assistance furnished by the President on terms he may dictate to any friendly country in Central America to enable that country to prevent the use of its territory for the transfer of military equipment from or through Cuba or Nicaragua or any other country. The assistance must be overt. For this overt aid $30,000,000 is provided for FY'83 and $50,000,000 is provided for FY'84."
