I thank the Chair. Then you could be exposed to a fine because a government bureaucrat has determined that the coverage, the health care coverage you bought, that you were given, is not sufficient enough to meet the minimal essential coverage this bill crafted. Well, very simply, there are veterans around the country who know they have been left out--their spouses, their family members, their kids with disease. Tonight we can assure them they are included by, in the health care fix bill, actually fixing that one piece and making sure that we extend the coverage the President promised and that we owe to these veterans and their families. When I introduce that bill, I hope all 100 Senators support it like the House has. I thank the Chair. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Montana.
