If my colleague wishes to proceed, that would be fine with this side of the aisle. Whatever way the Senator from Arizona wishes to proceed on this important topic is fine. Mr. McCAIN. I thank the Senator from Maryland. I hope the Presiding Officer will chastise the Senator from Virginia for being tardy. I know he is very capable of that.

The Senator from Arizona. Mr. McCAIN. I thank the Chair. (The remarks of Mr. McCain and Mr. Kaine pertaining to the introduction of S. 1939 are printed in today's Record under ``Statements on Introduced Bills and Joint Resolutions.'') The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Montana.
