“The Senate is getting a lot of important work done. The more we can work without having a lot of quorums, the better off we are. The time for morning business has been used well. I think we had even the beginnings of a good debate on the tax issue. That is important. The American people are looking to Members to come up with something that is important to them and important to the country with the tax issue before the Senate. With the bipartisan tone that has been set in the early stages of this Congress, I hope the debate will continue to be civil and constructive, and I hope we can come up with something constructive that is the best for the American people.”
