Madam President, yesterday I had an opportunity to go through and thank all of the appropriate people. This is arguably the most significant bill that we will have this year--as we have had every year. This is the 58th consecutive year we had a Defense authorization bill. This is dedicated and named after Senator McCain. It is the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act. We are very proud of the input we had from his staff and from him, and we went through it in record time. I certainly thank my counterpart, Senator Reed. He and I have worked very closely together for many years. I yield back the remainder of my time.
