On the recordOctober 22, 2015
Reclaiming my time, I will just conclude, Mr. Chairman, by saying that this amendment is not a good amendment for the bill because it guts title II. We need some predictability in the litigation process as well as in the government bureaucratic process. This allows parties to go to court. It prevents the abuse of EAJA. It is not the legitimate use of that law that we are after; it is the abuse of that particular law. That is why it is addressed in this bill. I would urge a ``no'' vote. I yield back the balance of my time. The CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Cartwright). The question was taken; and the Chair announced that the noes appeared to have it.
