On the recordSeptember 25, 1997
Mr. Chairman, I would ask, as I read the amendment, this would add $1 million to the U.S. Trade Representative's office to continue the good work they are doing in terms of representing us and furthering the globalization of our economy, and the progress of our domestic production.

If that is what it does, I do not have a problem with it.
