On the recordJuly 29, 1997
I appreciate your fair and unbiased assessment of the PBO initiative, Mr. Chairman. We have every hope of moving the authorizing legislation this session. However, as you and I both know, Congress can be unpredictable. Sometimes we advance ideas quickly, and other times, our work is frustratingly slow. For this reason, I want to reiterate our understanding that if Congress does not enact PBO authorizing legislation for SLSDC by the beginning of fiscal year 1998, the Senate will ensure in conference with the House that SLSDC will be funded.
