María Elvira Salazar: “I am proud of the fact that Senator Pryor and Senator Isakson and Senator Chambliss have joined us in moving forward…”

“I am proud of the fact that Senator Pryor and Senator Isakson and Senator Chambliss have joined us in moving forward with this amendment. It is a commonsense amendment. When you consider the horrific attack we saw in Oklahoma, it is exactly the kind of attack that might have been prevented if we had our rural law enforcement agencies with the kind of training that would make them part of our antiterrorism efforts. So I want us very much to move forward with this amendment, to adopt it in the Senate. I urge my colleagues to vote ``yes'' on this amendment.”
