I want to let him know, as someone on the same side of this issue as he is, we, too, feel particularly keenly about the leadership that he has exerted on this issue and so many other issues involving the Constitution of the United States. This is our bedrock document, a fundamental document. It has no more staunch supporter of the Constitution in this body or in this country than Senator Byrd, and I just want to add my voice to those of so many others in this body on both sides of this issue in gratitude for the labor that he has given to this Constitution. From his perspective, I know they are not labors because they are labors of love.
