I too am concerned about this amendment, especially when these campaign contributions are given secretly. You know, our system has been improved by having public disclosure of political contributions. I think the more the public knows about where the money is coming from, the better off the citizenry is. So I just support the ranking member, Mr. Price, who gave a very complete description of why we're against this amendment, and I urge its defeat. I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Oklahoma (Mr. Cole). The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the noes appeared to have it.
