On the recordMarch 20, 2010
Madam Speaker, this morning on my way in to the Capitol I experienced a moment of karma. The first song that came on the radio, when I turned it on, was a song from the show ``Les Mis'' called ``One Day More.'' In that Broadway show, ``One Day More'' is sung on the eve of an insurrection by French students, many of whom know they are going to die. One day more today we will be passing an historic piece of legislation that will not take lives. It will save lives; the 18,000 lives that are lost every year because of a lack of health insurance. We will save lives, we will save money, we will save Medicare, and we will save jobs. One day more until we accomplish all of that for our economy, for our citizens, and for our country. Tomorrow, indeed, will be a wonderful day. ____________________
