                    AN INFAMOUS MOMENT IN THE HOUSE

  (Mr. LEVIN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. LEVIN. Madam Speaker, last night's vote failing to support the 
NATO air campaign against Milosevic was an infamous moment in this 
House. The majority proclaims its support for the troops but will not 
support what the troops are now risking their lives to do. The majority 
wants to double appropriations for an effort most of them apparently 
oppose. What is left for bipartisanship when the Republican majority 
will not use it in times as these? For them, there seems no water's 
edge. They mock the memory of that great Republican Senator from my 
home State, Arthur Vandenberg.
