Timothy H. Bishop: “If the gentleman can just give me one second. Mr. Chairman, I guess…”

On the recordApril 20, 2005

If the gentleman can just give me one second. Mr. Chairman, I guess what I would say in response is that I understand the questions that the gentleman from Texas is raising and I understand, I guess, the consternation that he has with respect to receiving such a lengthy amendment with little notice. I would only say that the underlying bill is equally complex, equally dense, and that there are sections of the underlying bill that were not subjected to hearings, as well.
