On the recordMarch 29, 2000
This amendment is crafted carefully in cooperation with the GAO. The dollar amount and the establishment of the priority has been limited to the discussion on the Department of Education. Being unsure as to the full impact, effect, and cost of the suggestion the gentleman is offering, I would regretfully decline and say that I would be opposed to broadening the amendment.
