“I just wanted to address the Senator from Missouri to tell her that she has been a wonderful colleague for this Senator. As someone of more moderation in her politics who comes from a Republican-dominated State, she has negotiated the political winds so well and has always kept her eye on representing her State. This Senator from Florida particularly appreciates that, because being a Democrat in a Republican State is not an easy task, and she has done it with such dignity, looking out for her people, looking out for the people who are voiceless. I just want her to know she has the appreciation of this Senator from Florida. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Sasse). The assistant Democratic leader.”
