RUSH EXCERPT: HOEVEN: "We can and we should. We cut this down from about 1500 pages to 100 pages. We can do more and that’s why I emphasize regular order. Another thing you will see us to his go into what’s called budget reconciliation where we pass a budget. That’s going to enable us to make these changes, to implement the reforms that d.o.g.E. and others will come forward with and really find ways to make government operate not only more efficiently but get back to regular order and find the kind of savings you are talking about in terms of, you know, reducing the size and scope of these bills but not having just one big bill at the end of the year but individual appropriations bills. That’s the right way to do it."
