On the recordFebruary 13, 1995
Continuing my inquiry, if I may, the report on a block grant bill from the Committee on the Judiciary, House Report 104-24, does not discuss whether the block grant bill will have an inflationary impact on the Nation's economy. There is a section titled ``Inflationary Impact Statement'' on page 20 of the printed report. That section discusses the inflationary impact of the proposed constitutional amendment to balance the budget and, in fact, by the way, claims the balanced budget amendment will have no significant impact on the U.S. economy. Truly, Mr. President, this section in the entire report does not comply with the rules of the House, specifically clause 2(l)(4) of rule XI. Am I correct?
