Mr. Chairman. I move to strike the last word. and I rise in opposition to the amendment. This amendment seeks to strike three paragraphs from the bill which transfer funds for the operating expenses of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. the Immigration and Naturalization Service. and the Drug Enforcement Administration. The amendment offers no alternative funding. it just eliminates any reference in the bill to these agencies. I recognize and sympathize with the intentions of the sponsor of this amendment as he attempts to salvage for a few more months a program authorized by his committee. However. in trying to assist that program. the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration. he would damage three of our most important law enforcement agencies.
