On the recordJanuary 17, 1995

It may be a misunderstanding and we may be talking by each other on some of these matters. I simply point out what I think the ranking member of the Governmental Affairs Committee just alluded to, and that is the fact that what we are trying to do is leave the process the way it was. There can be no argument but what if you would follow the position taken by the ranking member of the Governmental Affairs Committee, we would not be making a change. The normal order is for the Parliamentarian to rule. The Governmental Affairs Committee bill would differ with that and change it. We objected to this Governmental Affairs proposal during negotiations. We did not control the process. They said they would take out the language, as we understood it, between meetings of the staff.
