as you have heard today on the floor, this rule is fair; it is balanced. It is not an exception; it is a rule. And I appreciate the kind comments that have been made by my colleagues on both sides of the aisle about underlying legislation which will help improve the national flood insurance program. I want to thank Chairman Richard Baker from Louisiana and Chairman Mike Oxley from Ohio for their strong leadership on behalf of this great bill. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time, and I move the previous question on the resolution. The previous question was ordered. The resolution was agreed to. A motion to reconsider was laid on the table. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the Clerk will effect a technical correction in the engrossment of the resolution by inserting ``the report of'' after ``printed in'' on page 2, line 9. There was no objection. ____________________
