Very briefly, I think the Senator from Pennsylvania is trying to address a very important issue. We have asked for the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee, under Senator Leahy's leadership, to take a look at it. I think we will have that answer quickly.

We are interested in getting the Senator's amendment adopted. I am hopeful we will be able to support it.
