LOCKHART v. UNITED STATES Scalia, J., concurring
claring the invalidity of the express-reference provision. I suppose that would depend upon which Congress one has in mind: the prior one that enacted the provision, or the cur rent one whose clearly expressed legislative intent it is de signed to frustrate. In any event, I think it does no favor to the Members of Congress, and to those who assist in draft ing their legislation, to keep secret the fact that such express-reference provisions are ineffective.
