On the recordFebruary 8, 1994
I am prepared to make a response to your question without dilatory tactics, if that is the question. The Senator once before asked if I would move to extend the statute of limitations with respect to this matter alone, and I said I would not. That was not my intent. If the Senator is asking whether or not I would be willing to support legislation that extends to all of the instances retroactively, I would have to say that in good conscience I could not support that. I do not mean to intrude on your time. If you want, at this time or later, I will explain why.
