On the recordJuly 13, 2005
Thank you. Today, Mr. President, we are going to try to continue to move forward on the Homeland Security appropriations bill. I hope Members, if they have amendments, will bring them to the floor so we can expedite this bill. I understand there are a number of Members who do intend to come to the floor, and we will look forward to entertaining their ideas. Amendment No. 1124 Initially, Mr. President, let me send to the desk an amendment on behalf of Senator Ensign. I ask unanimous consent that the pending amendment be set aside. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Is there objection? Without objection, it is so ordered.
