On the recordMarch 2, 2016
as one of the authors of the bill before us on the floor now, I wish to say that I appreciate and welcome the Senator's amendment, and I appreciate the bipartisan way in which it was achieved, with Sherrod Brown and Tim Kaine, as well as with the other cosponsors of the bill. With that, I yield the floor back so that we may hear from another coauthor of this legislation who was with us through the long and arduous process of preparing this bill, running the seminars, putting together the advisory committee, and crafting the legislation. I yield for the Senator from New Hampshire. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from New Hampshire.
