Trent Lott: “I say to the Senator, it is important we get these technical corrections done, because some legitimate, honest mistakes…”

“I say to the Senator, it is important we get these technical corrections done, because some legitimate, honest mistakes were made and several important projects could be affected. And we need to do it as soon as we can. But unless we can get unanimous consent, it will not be done. It has already passed the House. So we will have to find a way--I am working with Senators on our side, too, as I know Senators are working over there, to clear up concerns. There are other ways to address those concerns. And we are trying to get that worked out. We need to get it done. We need to do it by unanimous consent. And I, in fact, have met with one Senator this afternoon and discussed how to address a legitimate concern he has. So we will work with the chairman.”
