“I will just make a couple brief comments concerning campaign finance. One, I share some of the concerns of my colleague from Illinois. I will be happy to work with him. I did object to the resolution saying we wanted to have it done by May 31 or July 4. But I am committed to making campaign reform. And I will work with my colleague and friend from Illinois and others to try and see if we cannot come up with a bipartisan package that would do just that. It may not include everything that everybody has been talking about, but it will be constitutional, and, hopefully, may be passable through both Houses. It may not include everything. We may have to pass a couple pieces of legislation before we are done. But I have been charged with the responsibility on this side to try to put together a package that is saleable. I will work with my colleague and friend from Illinois to try to make that happen.”
