Speech #1050175776

It is not legislating. It would simply be to stop appropriated funds for fiscal year 1999 from being used to continue to implement this rule. which will go into fiscal year 1999 in its implementation. However. in light of that and in light of the assurances of the gentleman from Virginia. whom I certainly respect. and in light of the fact that the chairman of the Subcommittee on Immigration and Claims. the author of the original language. the gentleman from Texas . will work with us next week in setting up a meeting with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to see if we can work out an agreement with them and. if not. thereafter propose a legislative remedy for this. I will at this time withdraw the amendment. E 0020
