in short, a Federal judge cannot even find the merit behind the compact. But, despite earlier misgivings, the Department seems resigned to embarking on what appears to be the herculean task of making some sense out of the compact in order to save it from a court.

We can do this by passing the Dairy Fairness Act. I urge my colleagues to support this important legislation.
