Rick Boucher said "Mr. Chairman, once again, just for the sake of clarifying the record in this debate and making sure that no one leaves under the mistaken assumption with respect to what the Budget Committees in both houses are preparing to do, it should be pointed out that the Congress, through its budget formation process, has not adopted the number of $3.15 billion recommended in the amendment offered by the gentleman from New York; but in point of fact, the conference report on the concurrent budget resolution will be taken up very shortly here in the House and will add fully $100 million above the House number to the general science function, to function 250. Then the Committee on Appropriations, in its wisdom, can choose among the various science agencies which will receive that increase in funding." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
