May I suggest to the Senator, if he could offer it, it would be appropriate to offer the amendment that I believe the Senator intends to offer as it relates to providing for transportation needs of those who are seeking jobs outside of the inner cities. I think it is a well-crafted amendment and one that the Senator has worked on and has spoken to, and one that Senator Santorum has worked on and spoken to, and one that Senator Carol Moseley-Braun has worked on and spoken to. We are willing to entertain that and support it. It would be added as an amendment to the existing amendment. Amendment No. 1941 to Amendment No. 1931 (Purpose: To make reverse commute project grants eligible for assistance under the job access grants program)
