Trent Lott: “before I close, I do want to acknowledge the good work that was done…”

On the recordNovember 10, 1997

before I close, I do want to acknowledge the good work that was done on the ISTEA highway and transportation infrastructure bill. A number of Senators and Members of Congress worked on this legislation and did a very good job--of course, Senator Chafee, the chair of the committee; Senator Baucus, the ranking member; Senator Warner; Senator Bond; and others. Also, I want to thank their staffs for the work that they did well into the night last night. I know their names have already been mentioned, but I just want to add my commendations because I know that they really worked hard to get an agreement. Of course, this was just a preliminary bout of what will be a major fight next year in getting the big long-term bill done.
