On the recordNovember 13, 1997
This congressional session conclusion reminds me of the wonderful changing seasons on the Illinois prairie. Each year we are amazed by the God-given change in seasons, which works so well and even survives the most intense of storms to work together for the benefit of all of us here on Earth. When this Congress works together, it is like nature in harmony. We achieve much. While much was done in this first year of the 105th Congress, let us pledge to come back and complete the unfinished work which we will address in the next year. Let us cut down a little bit on the harsh rhetoric and the stringent remarks. Let us just work together. It is good for all of us.
