  Mr. ROHRABACHER (during the Special Order of Ms. Jackson-Lee of 
Texas). Mr. Speaker, I hereby give notice that I intend to offer a 
motion to instruct conferees.
  The form of the motion is as follows:

       Mr. Rohrabacher moves that the managers on the part of the 
     House at the conference on the disagreeing votes of the two 
     houses on the bill, H.R. 2500, be instructed to insist on the 
     language contained in section 626 of the House-passed bill 
     and section 623 of the Senate amendment, prohibiting the use 
     of funds in the bill by the Department of Justice or the 
     Department of State to file a motion in any court opposing a 
     civil action against any Japanese person or corporation for 
     compensation or reparations in which the plaintiff alleges 
     that, as an American prisoner of war during World War II, he 
     or she was used as slave or forced labor.
