Mr. Speaker. as the gentleman from Louisiana has pointed out. this resolution says. in effect. there are certain things that we need to fund irrespective of whatever else happens in the fight with the White House on a balanced budget. We are saying in this resolution the fight against crime and the fight against illegal immigration are above and beyond the political debate that is going on in balancing the budget. So consequently. in this bill there is complete funding for the fight against crime at the conference level of the appropriations bill that has passed the House and Senate conference and gone to the White House and been vetoed. Those activities that are funded in this bill at the full level for the rest of the year include: Funding for all activities of the Federal judiciary.
