On the recordFebruary 3, 1995
I say to my colleagues, ``Now you want to be family friendly? I'm all for family friendly, but don't anybody come and tell this Member that in the name of family friendly that we are not going to do our business in a proper fashion. Every Member here is entitled and obligated to take his or her concerns to this floor under the rules, and I don't want to see 1 second of one Member's obligation and duty compromised in any way, shape, or form.'' Is this the 100-day rule, which is not in this Constitution, but in the contract that they signed and I did not sign? I say to my colleagues, ``If it takes a thousand days, 10,000 days, that's what it takes to protect the Constitution of the United States, and that's what we take.''
