i had a very good discussion with the gentleman from california ( mr. lewis ) xz4002391 . 
i did not come here to the floor to strike these provisions from the bill . 
i will work with the administration . 
i will work with the committee on appropriations . 
i am going to do that as an authorizer . 
i am not claiming jurisdictional grounds . 
i am not going to play games with the gentleman from wisconsin ( mr. obey ) xz4003000 at all .
