Madam President, the Senator's efforts on this have been extraordinary. To see the depth of concern the Senator has for our oceans, for our lands--we have both worked so hard to make sure we can work together with our farm communities to keep inputs on the farm, to protect our rivers, to protect our streams. We know how hard our farmers are working on that as well. I know the Senator has a tremendous and strong farm community in Delaware. It was a privilege to sit and listen while the Senator was speaking before. I will note, as he said, you may have sent us a basketball coach, but in return, we sent you one as well. I turn the floor over to my colleague from Delaware.
