Mr. Chairman. I stand in opposition to the Barr amendment. There are great sections of this terrorism bill. effective death penalty reform. victims restitution. criminal alien deportation. that are great. That is fighting crime. But what does it do substantively for the cops? This is not a cops bill. What the gentlemans amendment does is it guts the bill. As stated in section 112 of the overall bill. 112 states that the National Institute of Justice shall test every single commercial bullet in this country against every single piece of protective armor that the policemen carry. that they can buy commercially.
