“I thank the Senator. As I said at the outset of the remarks I am giving here, there is a lot that is in this substitute that has, in fact, been taken from our committee bill. But as I am enumerating now, there is a lot also that has been added, and some of it really at the last moment. Some of it is compromise legislation, for instance, on the question of Federal worker rights, which we have been debating here for several weeks now. But some of it, such as the provision on child vaccine and the liability of pharmaceutical companies in cases of injury from that vaccine, we have never seen in any of the many forms of homeland security legislation that have been introduced or discussed, and not only in the Senate but I believe in the House as well.”
