As we have discussed, Democrats and Republicans on this panel, it is not just enough to enact landmark legislation like this, but it is important that it be appropriately implemented and that we exercise our responsibilities with respect to oversight.
Carper emphasizes the importance of implementing and overseeing legislation effectively.

Well, there is a good compromise out there, and I think if we are smart and don't give up today, we will find it.
I think that's really disgraceful, and it's unacceptable that the local DC courts have vacancies that last years because the Senate fails to act in a timely way.
Given how important this obviously is, my only regret is that we didn't have an opportunity to talk about it 24 hours ago.
Thank you for your passion, and I would ask that we spend the rest of this day dealing with this.
