On the recordApril 14, 1994
I, too, would like to congratulate Senator Dole. Senator Dole has always reminded me of a comment my father would often make to his children. He used to say, ``Never complain and never explain. Just go do it.'' One of the things about Bob Dole is his character is reflected in all that legislation that was recited here. I have never heard the man complain. I never heard him explain. I have just seen him fight for the things he thinks important. I admire him and say congratulations for 25 years of making life better for a whole lot of people in this country.
