On the recordMarch 8, 2004
I concur with my colleague, Senator Conrad. He is exactly right. The Senate can manage debate on the Senate resolution and conduct itself much better than we have in the past. Senator Conrad has been very helpful in making that happen. I think the debate we had today was a very good debate. We were expecting to yield back a lot of time. Frankly, we did not yield back much time because there was good, significant debate. We did not have prolonged quorum calls. We had a lot of speakers on both sides to present their views. I thank our colleagues for doing that.
