On the recordMarch 10, 1994
it is my hope that the Senate will see fit to adopt this amendment. It has been bipartisan and has been the subject of Small Business Committee hearings. The Senator from Arkansas [Mr. Bumpers], has been in favor of it. I do not see him here. The fact of it is that the agencies of the Government of the United States are simply not complying with the spirit of the law. Elsewise, we would not need judicial review. This amendment simply provides a means by which some in small business--and many of them do not have the wherewithal to challenge Government--will, from time to time, be able to take on the most egregious regulations and ask that they be reviewed as Congress intended. I urge adoption of my amendment.
