John Sarbanes: “I simply want to say I think the subject matter with which the Senator's other amendment, that he just referred to…”

On the recordJuly 12, 2002
I simply want to say I think the subject matter with which the Senator's other amendment, that he just referred to, deals is a very important subject, and I think his observations are very much on point. Working with the other side, we are trying to work through the amendment. We are in the process of trying to do that. Of course, we will be continuing to talk with the Senator, and I hope we can resolve it. It would be very helpful. I appreciate his kind words.
