Mr. President, reluctantly I object. I suggest the absence of a quorum so I may discuss this matter with Senator Collins. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator does not have the floor. Objection is heard.

More from Daniel Inouye
I'm certain you're aware that this subcommittee is deeply concerned about the rising rate of suicides. We will make certain that these funds are used for research and prevention.
We strongly support S. 65 and extend our appreciation and mahalo nui to our Senators Akaka and Inouye for the thoughtfulness, inclusion and forethought for our Native Hawaiian population.
I will continue to work to ensure that the Native Hawaiian people have their right to self-governance honored.
It is my hope that through the testimony today, the hearing record will reinforce the historical and legal justification for Native Hawaiian programs, like housing, to benefit our state's condition.
