On the recordJanuary 12, 2017
This is a pretty straightforward amendment. It proposes certain technical corrections within the bills. This would have normally been handled by the Rules Committee without need for a particular amendment, but because, as I said yesterday, the language of H.R. 238 is the exact language out of last year's June 15 bill, except for things that we dropped and limiting the appropriations to $250 million. So, in the spirit of total transparency, I bring this amendment forward so the full body can work its will on this technical correction that would have normally been fixed by the Rules Committee.
