“I want to thank the very able distinguished Senator from Michigan. I say to the Senator, I appreciate his tenacity. It is always good to see a Senator who fights doggedly for his State, who works very hard to make sure that his State is not taken advantage of. In fact, I say to the Senate, and to the residents of Michigan, the very able Senator from Michigan adds new meaning to ``fighting like a pit bull.''

It has helped make this a more balanced bill.”
