Before we leave this, Mr. President, I might say that Senator Boxer and Senator Inhofe, the chair and the ranking member of that most important committee--the Environment and Public Works Committee--are doing their utmost on a bipartisan basis to complete the conference with the House to get the highway bill passed, which means 2.8 million jobs. As this legislation concerns National Public Works Week, it would certainly be a big celebration if we could get that bill done. I appreciate very much Senators Boxer and Inhofe working so closely together on that committee. ____________________
