On the recordSeptember 8, 1998

I speak in support of the fiscal year 1999 interior appropriations bill. This is an important bill which provides for the management of our Nation's natural resources and funds research critical to our energy future. It supports the well-being of our Indian populations and protects the historical and cultural heritage of our country. The Interior bill remains one of the most popular appropriation bills, funding a diverse set of very worthy programs and projects. Our Chairman is a master of the complexities of the bill, and it is a pleasure to work on this appropriations bill with Senator Gorton. This bill was put together in a bipartisan manner, and it reflects priorities identified by many Senators, by the public, and by the agencies that are charged with carrying out the programs and projects funded in the bill.
