         FIXED INTEREST RATES FOR STUDENT AND PARENT BORROWERS

  (Mr. ARMEY asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. ARMEY. Mr. Speaker, I would just like to point out that 
increasing student loans and making them less expensive and costly has 
been a big part of our objectives in this majority, and we are very 
disappointed in the loss of this bill that just failed, S. 1762. I will 
mention that we will be having that bill available under a rule as soon 
as we can reconvene in the next session.
