Mike Johanns: “I thank the Senator from Kansas for bringing this up, because this is a very important issue, and not just in Nebraska…”

Just a word or two to both leaders. Thank you so much for your kind words. I also want to say thank you for mentioning my wife Stephanie. This has been a remarkable partnership for a lot of years, and I could not have done what I did…
