On the recordJune 10, 1998
I just want to say, I do not doubt for a moment the integrity and the word of the gentleman from Illinois, the chairman of the committee. I am sure that he did exactly what he committed to do and asked the Committee on Rules for an open rule. I assume he asked that the priority amendments that we asked for be made in order. I just regret that he was not more influential, perhaps, with the Committee on Rules and that they did not make more than one out of the 12 amendments that we had a priority on in order. I do not doubt for a moment nor would I ever cast aspersion on the integrity or the good word of the gentleman from Illinois.
