On the recordMay 18, 2006
on behalf of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, I raise a point of order against the provision beginning on page 73, line 3 and ending on line 8. This provision violates clause 2 of rule XXI. It changes existing law and therefore constitutes legislating on an appropriation bill in violation of House rules. The CHAIRMAN. Does any other Member wish to be heard on the point of order? If not, the Chair finds that this paragraph includes language imparting direction to the Executive. The paragraph therefore constitutes legislation in violation of clause 2 of rule XXI. The point of order is sustained, and the paragraph is stricken from the bill. Amendment Offered by Mr. Pallone
