On the recordFebruary 6, 1995
I would conclude my remarks at this time by saying that I believe it grossly unfair to categorize our amendment as being weakening. If we are truly concerned about deficit reduction, I believe the language of our amendment, as a supplement to, not as a replacement for, but a supplement to, clearly stands out as being more able to reduce the deficit because of the language which we put into our amendment. As the gentleman said, again, Members have talked about this language from the standpoint that somehow current law is better. It is not. And unless we in fact add our amendment, we will have current law 355 days out of the year but 10 days out of the year, 10 calendar days out of the year we will have a much improved situation over the current system.
