On the recordJune 22, 2000
We have been able to complete, under great difficulty, five appropriations bills. They have had hundreds of amendments. We have been able to finish those bills. I suggest the best thing to do, as I think the leader has already said he is going to do, is move forward with the debate on this amendment. There are tremendous feelings on both sides of the issue. People feel strongly about it. We should debate it for a while and see if something can be resolved. I hope, if we cannot do that, we might be able to move on to something else that needs to be completed.
