Speaker. the whole point that many Members in the minority have made. that we cannot pass a continuing resolution because there are these riders on it. just does not hold water. If you go back and look to the time when the Democrats were in the majority. time and time again there were riders on the continuing resolutions. In fiscal 1988. the continuing resolutions that year had the Agricultural Aid and Trade Mission Act. the Nuclear Waste Policy Amendments Act. the IndoChinese Refugee Resettlement Act. the Food Security Act Amendments. Over and over again there have been riders. So for someone to get up and say. "Well. there has to be a clean bill." that person is just not dealing with reality.
