On the recordNovember 9, 2007
I certainly agree with your observation about our veterans and the appropriateness of us taking the day on Monday to honor them. On that issue, we went to conference this week on two different bills, and my impression was, based on the combination of the Military Construction and Veterans bill with Labor-HHS, that that veterans part of that bill was probably done. I'm wondering if the gentleman has any sense of how we can reinitiate a conference on that bill so that we can get the veterans and the military quality of life, military construction money passed.
