This Crow Water bill in front of the Committee today is an excellent example of the good work that the Chairman is doing serving his tribe.

I appreciate your hard work.

I know of no further debate on the bill, as amended. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The bill having been read the third time and there being no further debate, the question is, Shall the bill pass? The bill (S. 1987), as amended, was passed.

I ask that the motion to reconsider be considered made and laid upon the table. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Nebraska. ____________________
