On the recordDecember 11, 2000
the gentleman from Delaware has my commitment that, early in the 107th Congress, the committee will study and draft such reforms based upon the good work of the gentleman from Delaware, the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Bishop), and others on the committee, which have been reflected in the bill. In fact, we have already done this. We have passed it, as the gentleman has said, both in the House and the Senate. I think we had good product, I think we had good process, and I am sorry we find ourselves in this predicament. However, I think the best resolution, as has been outlined, is to go forward with the vital bill. The gentleman from Delaware (Mr. Castle) has my commitment that we will go back, and perhaps we can improve even more on the improvements the gentleman has already recommended to us.
