Location: Washington, DC


Mr. Speaker, the three bills made in order by today's rules are overfunded to the expense of our Nation's military. They strip longstanding bipartisan provisions and include far left, radical poison pills, they will not be taken up by the Senate, and they will not become law.

Given the looming September 30 deadline to fund the government, I would just hope that my colleagues, my liberal colleagues across the aisle, would work with Republicans to craft a bipartisan appropriation measure that can make it to the President's desk.

Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote ``no'' on the previous question and ``no'' on the rule.

Mr. RESCHENTHALER. Mr. Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays.

The yeas and nays were ordered.
