On the recordApril 1, 1998
I thank both Senators from North Dakota for their strong voices and strong support for the crop insurance program. To sum it up, our farmers, our refugees, our asylees, should not be penalized because of the delay on the part of the House last year--not going to conference--and they should not be penalized because of this odd parliamentary situation we have. I hope the majority leader and his staff who are listening to this will hopefully bring up this bill today, and let's get it passed. I don't think it will take more than 10 or 15 minutes to get the job done and we can say to our farmers that their crop insurance policies are, indeed, going to be renewed for next year. I thank both of the managers of the bill for yielding us this time to talk about this very important subject.
