ANNOUNCEMENT OF INTENTION TO OFFER MOTION TO INSTRUCT CONFEREES ON H.R. 
      3355, VIOLENT CRIME CONTROL AND LAW ENFORCEMENT ACT OF 1993

  Mr. McCOLLUM. Mr. Speaker, pursuant to clause 1, rule XXVIII, I am 
announcing to the House that tomorrow I intend to offer a motion to 
instruct conferees on the bill (H.R. 3355) to amend the Omnibus Crime 
Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 to allow grants to increase police 
presence, to expand and improve cooperative efforts between law 
enforcement agencies and members of the community to address crime and 
disorder problems, and otherwise to enhance public safety.
  The form of the motion is as follows:

       Mr. McCollum moves that the managers on the part of the 
     House at the conference on the disagreeing votes of the two 
     Houses on the House amendment to the Senate amendment to the 
     bill H.R. 3355 be instructed not to make any agreement that 
     does not include section 2405 of the Senate amendment, 
     providing mandatory prison terms for use, possession, or 
     carrying of a firearm or destructive device during a state 
     crime of violence or state drug trafficking crime.
