Jerry Lewis: “In the spirit of that I say to the gentleman, Mr. Fazio, I appreciate…”

On the recordJuly 13, 1995

In the spirit of that I say to the gentleman, Mr. Fazio, I appreciate what you've said. I've attempted to communicate with the Park Service. They have been nonresponsive. Let me say that indeed if we make this change, if it goes forward from here, a dollar for the Park Service, $599,000 for the multiple-use agency, the Bureau of Land management, I know they'll be talking to me between now and the time we go to conference, and that's exactly what the House ought to do. If this House last year had believed--could imagine the Park Service would do this to my district, they would have thrown this idea out. I mean it is almost ridiculous, but we shouldn't prolong the evening, Mr. Fazio. We have really said all there is to say, and I appreciate your cooperation. I just wish you lived down there in San Bernardino County with me.
