On the recordMarch 13, 2008
the amendment I agree with is the Vitter amendment which says that the rules surrounding FACE, which is the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, would apply to recruiting stations because we do not want anyone hurt by demonstrators. Whether it is at a reproductive health care clinic or a recruiting station, we fully agree, and we are very happy to accept that amendment. The amendment by the Senator from North Carolina, on the other hand, would take funds away from the University of California, would take funds away from the police and firemen in Berkeley, would take funds away from the children who go to school there, would take funds away from transit--these people who had nothing to do with anything any city councilman in Berkeley said. And, by the way, P.S., they took it back. They took back what they said.
