                    NATIONAL COMMISSION ON TERRORISM

  (Mr. WOLF asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WOLF. Mr. Speaker, in the last Congress, the Congress voted to 
have a national commission to study terrorism; and to date the Congress 
has not acted on the funding on that commission.
  Today I will be offering an amendment in the supplemental to have the 
funding for that commission. With all the terrorist activity that is 
taking place, the CIA killings in my congressional district, the World 
Trade bombing, the bombing of embassies by Osama Bin Laden and others, 
for Congress not to act on putting the funding in at this time would 
absolutely be a disgrace.
  This is so important that we ought to have a bipartisan commission 
that looks to making sure that everything that possibly can be done to 
deal with the issue of terrorism is being done.
