On the recordJune 23, 2004
I thank the Senator for the reference to the ITAR amendment, which I put in. I consulted with him, Senator Biden, and a great many Senators who worked with me in making this amendment possible, which is currently a part of the managers' package and, I anticipate, will become part of the final bill. It is long overdue, as the Senator points out. But this amendment is sort of a keystone. I thank the Senator for adding that very important piece of legislative history to what I hope will be a statutory provision that reflects the goals we both had in mind.
