On the recordFebruary 14, 2005
The transportation bill is a major priority for the leadership on this side of the aisle and the leadership on the other side of the aisle. It remains a major priority. It is also, I might add, a major priority for the House of Representatives, which is committed to having appropriate committee action. We encourage the committees to act as soon as they practically can. Once that bill is ready, we will make sure it comes to the floor of the Senate. It is a bill which, as we all know, has strong bipartisan support. We have passed a major transportation bill on the floor of this Senate, and it is time to look at what changes there might be, look to the budgetary objectives, and as soon as possible bring that bill to the floor.
