I dont know the definitive answer. I think n that yes, you are correct. We need to check that and get back to you. Right, my concern is, given everything we know in the short term, i would hate for San Mateo County to act because of that imperative. And then i guess the question is, is it possible, i guess you cant really pass we vote to pass both. That sounds bizarre.

As we begin our final day of consideration of the fy21 spending bills, id like to thank you all for your kind words and well wishes and ask you, please, to indulge me in just a few more reflections. I came to congress in 1989, one of just 31 women in the house and senate and to this committee in 1993 alongside only six other women under the 64member panel. This body is better for the 100 women serving in the 116th congress and for the many women in the room today. Its my honor to address the full committee for my final time as the first woman chair. You know, its ironic [applaus [applause] thank you. Its ironic that back in 1993 i had to choose between serving on appropriations or ways and means. I was fortunate to be given that choice.
