On the recordJuly 30, 1997
I am supportive of the effort to appropriate the funds necessary for the study outlined in the manager's amendment to S. 39, beginning in fiscal year 1998. In fact, it is my understanding that the manager's amendment is written so that a number of sections in S. 39 will become effective only after funding for the first year of the study has been provided. It is clear to me that full funding for this research is a critical element of the agreement on S. 39.
