On the recordMarch 21, 2002
Mr. President, I will file an amendment, but I shall not bring it up at this time. This amendment would require the cessation of importing oil from Iraq, which is currently at 1.2 million barrels a day, until such time as the President certifies that Iraq, one, allows U.S. inspectors access to suspected sites for the development of weapons of mass destruction; and, two, ceases to cheat the U.N. oil program by smuggling oil out through third countries. It will be my intention to bring this amendment up upon our return from the recess.
