Mr. Speaker. I oppose the resolution. We have before us only 2 more months in this session. We have better things to do than use up 3 valuable legislative days on H.R. 3. Appropriations bills remain untouched by us. The labor bill languishes. Civil rights legislation awaits us. Omnibus immigration legislation is long overdue. The President has asked for new fiscal powers. Is it not ironic that legislation of such huge importance as the Mutual Security Act was given only 4 hours of debate. whereas this bill is given 5? And the funny thing Is that after debate is concluded the proponents of this bill will still not have told us precisely what its impact will be.
