On the recordJanuary 5, 2001
I talked to a respected and veteran newspaper editorialist of the Washington Post, Bob Kaiser, just a couple days ago. He said: Pat, you have been around here quite a while. Is this possible? 50/50, will it work in the Senate? Can you avoid the partisan bickering and all that that encompasses? I said: I don't know, Bob, but we've got a shot. We have an opportunity. Borne out of necessity, we must do this. Senator Lott and Senator Daschle, and our leadership team, thank you for arranging this possibility. It is now up to us. We have the responsibility, and, yes, both of us now have the authority. Let's see if we can get it done. I yield the floor.
