On the recordSeptember 15, 1999
Mr. Speaker, there is a popular television program entitled Jeopardy. Voting for the motion to recommit is entering into that game of Jeopardy because a motion to recommit that carries opens up the entire wonderfully written package for the troops should it go to conference. I think that we should do our best to protect the pay raises, the pay table, the new barracks, the family housing, the specialty pay, the TRICARE additions. We should do our very best to protect this bill. Mr. Speaker, it is the year of the troops. This is our tribute, the Congress of the United States' tribute to those young men and those young women who wear the American uniform and represent us so very, very proudly wherever they may be.
