“I have no intention, if the Senator will yield further, to cover the issues--he is talking about the one that puts a cap on the 1998 expenditures--unless authorized by law. The other one is intended to cover those costs where I believe the United States is going to venture out and say we will do this. We have had that experience with the expenditures before. I think we will have it again in these new areas, and these new areas are the ones that need the most in terms of expenditure. Very frankly, we cannot afford to go it alone anymore. We want to see a requirement that Congress review the expenditures of funds in these areas.”
