               By Mr. PITTENGER:
           H.R. 4757.
           Congress has the power to enact this legislation pursuant
         to the following:
           The explicit power of Congress to establish an uniform Rule
         of Naturization, and uniform Laws on the subject of
         Bankruptcies throught the United States as enumerated in
         Article 1, Section 8, Clause 4, of the United States
         Constitution.
           Additionally, Article 1, Section 7, Clause 2 of the
         Constitution allows for every bill passed by the House of
         Representatives and the Senate and signed by the President to
         be codified in to law; and therefore implicitly allows
         Congress to amend any bill that has been passed by both
         chambers and signed in to law by the President.
