the last point you made and mr. hale made easier, it is not an easy thing to do, to determine who is a low income person with disabilities. i understand that but i still think it's a worthwhile goal and i think since we have time to do that, i guess the rest of the amendment i would offer is that we direct staff to develop some kind, develop options for us to consider about how to make it more equitable for the low income persons with disability. so that's an amendment, julie can come up with better legal language i'm sure, but is there a second on that? >> second. >> all those in favor? the ayes have it. talk on the amended resolution. >> i just had a question. first of all the presentation was excellent, thank you both for that

we will be spending a .ot of time on capitol hill our chiefs will be, our senior leaders will be mr. hale, the comptroller, will be especially be spending a lot of time going to specifics. i will not preview what we will be presenting and what we will not and what we will be cutting. as i said, tony, that buy- back will be used -- and marty and i spent yesterday afternoon on this issue with the chiefs -- how are we going to use that money and then where are we going to have to deal -- where we continue to have to plan to cut and where we are going to take it out of the $32 billion that we do not have. >> have the appropriators -- you're talking about that 2015 budget? >> but we are still talking about 2014, too, because the budget is 2015, right, but we are living in that right now and we did not have any certainty at all. we do not have a budget until the president signs this. we are still dealing with 2014. we have to with the congress, with the white house, and so that is not going away. we have to continue to figure out as we work through this -- that was the whole point as much as an
