I would just like to state, first of all, the Galvin Commission said nothing about cutting the labs by a third. I do not believe the chairman of the Committee on Science is supporting the gentleman's amendment, nor is the minority.

I want the gentleman to affirm whether I am correct. Does the Galvin Commission support the gentleman's amendment?
