These bills are H.R. 1384, to allow VA employees to work outside the VA; H.R. 3376, VA major medical construction authorization; H.R. 3643, expiring authorities legislation; and, of course, H.R. 3118, the Veterans' Health Care Eligibility Reform Act of 1996, the one we have all worked so hard on for several years. Mr. Speaker, I hope that all Members will support this bill.
