Thank you. As we wait for those bipartisan negotiations--and we hope we will get something soon, because I have seen reinsurance be a positive force in my State for bringing some of the rates down in the exchange. The average for the preliminary rates was 20 percent when our Republican legislature joined with our Democratic Governor to get this passed--20 percent reduction. We would like to see that rolled out on a national basis. (The remarks of Ms. Klobuchar pertaining to the submission of S. Res. 268 are printed in today's Record under ``Submitted Resolutions.'')
