On the recordFebruary 10, 1994
I think with the storm and with other things going on, I hope that the conferees will be talking a lot all morning as the papers are prepared and will understand that there is a very real concern about getting this aid to California done tomorrow, because I think it gets very difficult for the House to function effectively on Saturday, just given the weather and given all the various Members who had previous plans.
