There is no exemption in this legislation for regulations that simply make good sense. As a result. the amendment I am offering would exempt several regulations that I believe most Members will agree make sense. and should not be subject to a moratorium. Regulations that would be exempt from the moratorium under my amendment include: rules prohibiting the personal use of campaign funds. improved procedures to dispose of meritless petitions for asylum under immigration laws. rules to give preference to the elderly in public housing. to exclude drug addicts from public housing and to designate empowerment zones and enterprise communities. rules authorizing payment of benefits to Persian Gulf veterans. rules providing for the development of a data base for child molesters. and rules necessary to establish the hunting season for ducks and other waterfowl. Let me speak first on the duck hunting issue. My amendment would exempt from the moratorium the Interior Departments regulations establishing the hunting season. hunting hours. hunting areas. and bag limits for migratory birds.
