I stand in this well today simply to take note of the fact... the Committee on Veterans' Affairs serves as an example of what is possible when Members agree to rather commonsense, broad precepts such as a cost-of-living adjustment for deserving veterans with disabilities and their survivors. This is an outstanding piece of legislation. It is a commonsense approach that brings the concept of fairness to those who have worn this Nation's uniform. I endorse it wholeheartedly. I urge my colleagues to vote in the affirmative for the legislation.
