Harry Reid said "I look forward to this period of time prior to the July 4 recess, as does the entire minority. We are hopeful we can make progress on the appropriations bills, which certainly need to be accomplished. Also, I hope there will be an opportunity to do something about the Patients' Bill of Rights, prescription drugs; that we can complete work on the minimum wage, and the juvenile justice bill. A number of these matters have been languishing, waiting for the conference committees to act. We have all had our time at home, and we are ready to go. We hope we can move forward, I repeat, with the appropriations bills and these matters I have outlined." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
