So that just seems to me common sense for this committee as a whole. And I want to address the matter of jurisdiction. Senator Merkley referenced it a bit in his remarks, but We actually did a bill on the rescissions on the floor last week. It was referred to this committee, to the Appropriations Committee. The Appropriations Committee was then discharged from further action on the floor, along with Budget and every motion to recommit during the debate, and there were many, was to this committee, Appropriations. (00:34–00:44)
