Mr. President, before the Senator from Maine leaves the floor, I wish to thank her for the extraordinary contribution she makes to our committee as well as to the Senate. She and I have worked long together, and we work extremely well together. We have seen a lot of things that were able to get passed because of people working together--a lot of measures that can happen because people are willing to set aside partisanship--and she has been one of the leaders in getting things done in this body and in the committee. I wish to thank her and tell her how grateful a chairman I am for her contribution. We are working hard on the amendments she has offered. They are being worked on--last week and this week--and we will have something to report to her, I hope, in the next few hours. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Maine.
