Mr. President, I wish to express my strong support for California Superior Court Judge John A. Kronstadt, as the Senate prepares to vote on his confirmation to the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. Judge Kronstadt was recommended to the President by my colleague, Senator Feinstein, and will be a great addition to the Federal bench. Judge Kronstadt has had a distinguished career. After graduating from Yale Law School, he served as a Federal law clerk for Judge Gray on the Central District of California. With his confirmation, Judge Kronstadt will be returning to the same court where he served as a clerk. Following his clerkship, he was in private practice, specializing in complex litigation, antitrust, copyright and securities. Since 2002, Judge Kronstadt has served as a superior court judge in Los Angeles. I congratulate Judge Kronstadt and his family on this important day, and urge my colleagues in the Senate to join in voting to confirm this highly qualified nominee to the Federal bench.

The request would be to strip the rider out. My colleagues look perplexed. We have been talking about a 98-page rider that was added to the WRDA bill, and we have filed an amendment to do that. The PRESIDING OFFICER. It is not in order.
