Senator Frist and I have also agreed to set up a working group that examines how best to implement the 9/11 Commission's recommendations that deal with reform of the Senate, such as improving intelligence oversight. Over the coming days we will meet to discuss how best to organize and focus this group. Our intent would be for this group to similarly present a plan of action by October 1 on how to implement the recommendations made by the Commission that deal with the Congress.
