On the recordJuly 17, 1997
I concur with his assessment that the report language he references has no standing since there is no funding in the Cooperative State Research Facilities account. I would like to note for the Record that the subcommittee received numerous, numerous requests from Members on both sides of the aisle for funding for research buildings, and I am sure that all these proposals have merit, and should funding be made available in this account, I would expect that each proposal that qualifies for these funds would be judged on their merits. Mr. Chairman, I also want to say that I thank the gentleman and supported his amendment, especially because it is done within the context of the additional money that was included within the subcommittee allocation.
