On the recordMarch 3, 1995
Finally, a question to the majority leader. Many of us know that there are very, very difficult sessions ahead. We know that the Republicans are on a 100-day schedule for the contract. But after the first 100 days very difficult decisions are going to face this body on appropriations matters, on budget matters, and on rescission matters and on a farm bill that is critical to many of our States. Can the gentleman give us some sense of the predictability and how efficacious we are going to be in terms of the schedule between April and August, and are we going to see a repeat of this first 100 days?
