On the recordNovember 17, 2010
Mr. President, I hope that at the end of the day amendments will be allowed; that we can come up with a bill that is positive and that closes these gaps we have in the food safety inspection program in this country. Senator Klobuchar and I have worked very hard on a provision that is included in the base bill that will improve the inspection process and make it easier and give more authority and, more importantly, more teeth to the folks who are charged with doing the inspections. If that is the case, and we can get the right amendments done, then perhaps we can get a true bipartisan bill passed and one we can all feel good about supporting. With that, Mr. President, I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Wyoming. Second Opinion
