     Congress shall be considered to constitute a joint 
     explanatory statement of a committee of conference for the 
     provisions in this Act. References in this joint statement to 
     the conference agreement mean the provisions in this Act, 
     references to the House bill mean the House passed version of 
     H.R. 4942, and references to the Senate bill mean the Senate 
     passed amendment to H.R. 4942.
       This Act may be cited as the ``District of Columbia 
     Appropriations Act, 2001''.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Oklahoma?
  Mr. MORAN of Virginia. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to object, I 
would just like a statement from the gentleman from Oklahoma (Chairman 
Istook) to make it clear for the record that there are no material 
changes to the bill as reported out by the conference in agreement with 
the Senate.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman if he wants to give those 
assurances.
  Mr. ISTOOK. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman from Virginia for 
yielding to me.
  This is identical to the conference report on the original D.C. 
appropriations bill for fiscal year 2001, H.R. 4942, with one technical 
exception, that exception is simply adding a new section, section 167 
that makes the joint explanatory statement in the conference report on 
H.R. 4942 to apply to this new bill.
  Mr. Speaker, that is the only difference, and it is just a technical 
one for the sake of a clear record.
  Mr. MORAN of Virginia. Mr. Speaker, with that confirmation, I have no 
objection. I am glad to see this pass with unanimous consent of both 
parties.
  Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Oklahoma?
  There was no objection.
