On the recordFebruary 10, 2009

This is not finished. And the fact is that the job losses that we are looking at--3.6 since when the recession started in December, 2007. Something must be done. We have to act now. Anybody who knows anything about economics knows that. And I will say this: while I really want the Senate version to improve, and I really am going to fight for that and encourage people to get on those conferees and have a better bill come out, I know that we have to do something. No action is no option.
