as modified, this is still the authorization bill being offered to an appropriations bill. It amounts to legislation on an appropriations bill--a substantial authorization, I might add. I feel it is a violation of rule XVI. Therefore, as chairman of this subcommittee, I make a point of order that this amendment offered by the Senator from Virginia is subject to the provisions of rule XVI, and I make that point of order very plainly. I ask that it be ruled to be authorization on an appropriations bill.
