On the recordJune 8, 1995
We accept the amendment of the Senator from North Dakota on this side of the aisle. I want to commend him for his work on this subject. He is a friend of mine, and an outstanding leader in this area. Let me say that this subject of serving the smaller cities and rural areas is very important. I have spoken frequently on that in our committee. We are prepared to accept this amendment. We urge other Senators with amendments to bring them to the floor. We are ready to go here on the floor.
