Senator LEAHY. and by Senators INOUYE and KASTEN. Each of the proposals deserved careful consideration. Unfortunately. this administration has refused to consider alternatives other than its own.

I will support the resolution pending before the Senate. because no language in the resolution gives me a reason to vote "no." However. in doing so. I feel compelled to point out the resolutions serious shortcomings.
