The goal is to move as quickly as possible--we'd love to get broad-based, bipartisan co-sponsors on it.

The Public Record
It is clear that we must take action to remove these toxic toys from our shores and from our stores.
This year, we're going to try to do our dead level best to pass the amendment to take pensions away from Senators and Congressmen who have been convicted of public corruption while they're in office.
I just had one follow-up question to what Senator Bill Nelson asked a few moments ago.
What happens if you get in there and the Iraqi forces, whether they be a police unit or a brigade, whatever size it may be, what if they just fail to meet the obligations that they have?
I have concerns, as we have discussed previously, about the surge or the augmentation, whatever you want to call it.
My sense is that this is not worth doing unless the Iraqis buy into this strategy because I think fundamentally that is what we are talking about here, is the Iraqi government, the leadership, military police, et cetera.
