I would like Members to be clear, and I would like to be clear about what this point of order does. Having now cut vital, according to the administration, vital Army and Marine Corps military installations out of the budget, this point of order, as I understand it, would cut approximately $50 million out of Air Force facilities that the Bush administration and the Pentagon said we needed for the Predator program, which the public might not understand is a vital unmanned aerial vehicle used in our war on terrorism. Am I correct, Mr. Chairman, that the $50 million cut would affect the Predator Air Force program? The CHAIRMAN. The point of order would excise the entire paragraph, if sustained.
