On the recordSeptember 29, 1997
Well, Madam Speaker, I thank the gentleman and would just tell him that this is a takeoff of legislation I started about 8 months ago on the Lincoln bedroom. But I think the gentleman's legislation is a little more comprehensive, and I, frankly, would like to cosponsor the gentleman's bill and make sure we carry the message forward. I think when the public and our colleagues hear about this particular abuse or that abuse, I think a comprehensive bill that would embrace all of the changes would get the attention, I believe, not only of the public but as well the Speaker and the leadership. So I would like to work with the gentleman on that legislation so we can have both sides of the aisle embrace it and have it pass in this session.
