I yield myself such time as I may consume. I'm just going to speak for a short time and then yield. I respect the chairman of the committee; we've been friends for a long time. It's really sad this amendment is here. There can't be money used under the bill for salaries. There's no lack of clarity here. Essentially, this is an effort to give some kind of fig leaf, or whatever it is, for a terrible, terrible bill. I reserve the balance of my time.
