I want to thank my colleague from Illinois. He has my full commitment to try to get this done before we leave, and I am willing to compromise on some of these issues. He makes a good point in that, with the Senate's schedule, we are not…

I am really working hard with my colleagues here--I see Senator Durbin has come to the floor--to make a law that we all know is the right thing to do. In fact, in my 8 years in the U.S. Senate, I don't think I have ever been involved with…

I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call be rescinded. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Van Hollen). Without objection, it is so ordered. Amendment No. 6503
