Other than by those extraordinary means. we depend upon the committees of Congress that are assigned the responsibility of reviewing legislation. to consider and debate legislation before it is brought to the floor. So I cannot give the gentleman. my friend . the assurance that the committees will act with any particularity on the amendments or legislation that are pending before them. I did offer him my opinion that the Immigration Act would be considered this year. that the bankruptcy legislation. in my judgment. will be considered this year. but it is not the intention of the leadership on this side to usurp the authority of the committees of Congress.
