On the recordMay 9, 1995
Mr. Chairman, I particularly want to address these comments to my good friend, the gentleman from North Carolina [Mr. Coble], with whom I have worked many, many years on Coast Guard matters and for whom I have the deepest personal high regards. I wanted to first of all commend him for recognizing the serious problem and for his commitment to work with me and others to see if we cannot address it in this or some other forum. This bill is not finished. It goes to the Senate. It goes through a conference, and there may be an opportunity somewhere along the way for us to fix this mess. It may be that we have to do it in some other bill. I want to commend the gentleman for working with me. I would encourage him to hold a hearing so we can hear from people around the country about the real effects of this fee schedule.
