C. W. Bill Young: “Well, I would suggest that the gentleman ask them to yield and ask…”

On the recordDecember 8, 2000

Well, I would suggest that the gentleman ask them to yield and ask them that question. I do not know what their plans are going to be. But I would say this, throughout this entire process my leadership has been available to me any day, weekend, weekday, night or day. I have no difficulty whatsoever communicating with my leadership because they are committed to completing this job, but they are committed to doing it in a responsible fashion. We are just not going to sit down and agree to $112 billion, and the gentleman might as well understand that. He can debate about it all he wants to, but we are not going to go to the figure of $112 billion.
