I oppose the amendment. Chairman Goodlatte, chairman of the Judiciary Committee, who was here and just left, strongly opposes the amendment. There is no authorization. There is no appropriation. Congress never approved it. It is almost like an executive order out of nowhere. Again, so the chairman of the full committee, we try to work closer together. We have had a better relationship than we have had for a long time. The authorizers oppose it, and so I strongly oppose it and ask for a ``no'' vote on the amendment. Madam Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.
