On the recordApril 29, 1998
I wish to, first of all, I want to compliment the chairman on his willingness when I offered this amendment in committee to continue to work with me and my staff to try to perfect this amendment, to make sure that we attain the goals of flexibility and reduce costs to the students and, therefore, reduced debt to the students. We have worked with the gentleman, and I want to compliment the gentleman and his staff for working through those issues. We are hopeful that this will not be costed by CBO. We are also hopeful that we will not have a vote on this and that the gentleman will accept it and that we may not have a rollcall vote. We also would prefer, if we could, in the morning, once we get CBO to score it, if in fact there is a way that we can continue to have the gentleman support this amendment and further perfect it in conference, we would maintain that flexibility as well.
