it is a distinct honor and pleasure to join Senator Leahy in welcoming our guests from the United Kingdom to the Senate. This is a tradition we have really enjoyed and benefited from--the close opportunity to talk and discuss issues of mutual interest and concerns--and I think we reflect credit on the good relationship of both of our countries in that process.
