But I want to tell you that this is not the place to start trying to transfer all the unfinished legislative calendar to the appropriations calendar. I am told. for instance. that we could expect to have the crime bill put on this CR. and also the foreign aid authorization. the water project authorization. possibly another abortion amendmentwho knows how many of those there will beproduct liability. Superfund. beer distributorships. and immigration. If the Senate cannot under its normal procedures finish the legislative calendar. than loading up appropriations bill is a poor excuse. We may enjoy certain political therapy by going through the motions and getting our little publicity out to the hometown newspapers. but this does violence to the institution.
