Cord Byrd: “Wait until the Senator sees the bills that are going to come to this floor if this bill dies. Wait until the Senator…”

On the recordJune 30, 1995
Wait until the Senator sees the bills that are going to come to this floor if this bill dies. Wait until the Senator sees the cuts that are going to be made if this bill dies. The cuts that are going to be made in the 1996--the Senators will come back and read what I said in the Record, if the Senators insist on killing this. The Senators will read it. The Senators will see that this is just a drop in the bucket.
