On the recordOctober 11, 2011
I say through the Chair to my friend, I was happy to have that dialog. As we have indicated, if at some time we get on a jobs bill, we will have--as I have indicated, I appreciate the comments of a number of people in the press today. Specifically, I direct myself to Mr. John Cornyn, the junior Senator from Texas. He and I have not always seen the same picture on legislative matters, but I thought his statements in the press were very constructive. He, in effect, said he would hope we could get on legislation and work on it the way we used to and that would be to have some agreement on how we move forward with amendments. The Republican leader and I are trying to do that. ____________________
