For the gentleman's edification, a listing of the waivers that were requested by Governor Thompson appeared in the Congressional Record of June 4, 1996, at page E992. So every Member of the House of Representatives, and for that matter the public at large, by 9 a.m. yesterday morning had the list of the waivers that were requested. I am sorry that many of the Members, including the gentlewoman from California, decided not to look at them before making her speech.
