I wish to make it clear that it does not in any way imply that we should reduce function 050. It does not say that in the sense-of-the-Senate resolution. It just says that it is the sense of the Senate that we should not fund Star Wars at more than last year's level. It does not say it should be transferred outside 050. It may stay inside the Defense Department and be used for some other, what I would consider, legitimate purpose other than Star Wars. I wish to make that point clear; that the sense-of-the-Senate resolution does not imply or does not say that this money should then be transferred from 050 for something else. It can all stay in defense. The increase should not be used for Star Wars. I wanted to make that clear.
