On the recordMay 15, 1996
I once made a statement with all this ``Buy American'' stuff when I heard all of the arguments that we could hire generals a lot cheaper from Korea. Evidently it helped me, and in 1994, I want to give credit to then Chairman Dellums who had helped me pass a law that says that if in fact a foreign country discriminates against certain types of American products, then there shall be no waivers of the blanket ``Buy American'' Act. I think that is a very important piece of legislation. I want to thank the gentleman from helping with that. The reason why I have asked for the time is I want to engage in a colloquy with the chairman, and I commend the chairman for the fine job he has done. But is that, because it was authorized in 1994 as a part of the Defense authorization bill, permanent law?
