On the recordJune 11, 1996
This is for the purpose of making it clear that the appropriation on further studies and evaluations by this office over USDA will only be prospective for the coming year. It does not include any evaluation and studies that are ongoing at the present time, so that valid studies like for the electronic benefit transfer, WIC program, and stuff, that will continue. I have worked this out with the gentleman from New Mexico and the gentleman from Illinois. I do not believe there are any objections to the amendments.
