proposed by Mrs. Murray (for herself and Mr. Schumer) to the bill H.R. 
815, to amend title 38, United States Code, to make certain 
improvements relating to the eligibility of veterans to receive 
reimbursement for emergency treatment furnished through the Veterans 
Community Care program, and for other purposes; which was ordered to 
lie on the table; as follows:

       At the appropriate place, insert the following:
       Sec. __. (a) Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) Congress remains concerned about the domestic supply 
     and production of nitrocellulose.
       (2) Any failure or supply shortage could restrict 
     ammunition manufacturing for large and small calibers, 
     harming the commercial marketplace and placing the war 
     fighters at risk.
       (b) Not later than 180 days after the date of the enactment 
     of this Act, the Secretary of the Army shall submit to 
     Congress a report on the United States supply of 
     nitrocellulose and options for increasing production to meet 
     demand.
                                 ______
