On the recordMarch 10, 1995
I am willing to offset, you understand. We found the money to offset. The Parliamentarian tells me it does not fit because we are taking money, we are cutting money elsewhere than what is cut in the bill. If I do not cut, deeper that is than cuts that are in the bill, I cannot cut anyplace else even in the same agency. That is what the gentleman is doing. He is telling me if I want to put the money back for VA I have to take it either out of housing money or someplace else. I cannot cut any further because the committee has already cut the full limits that can be cut in those items. But I cannot go to someplace else and cut and make a cut. The gentleman will not let me do that.
