William H. Frist: “Today we sent the emergency supplemental appropriations conference…”

On the recordJune 15, 2006

Today we sent the emergency supplemental appropriations conference report to the President with a 98-to-1 vote. We also made some progress on the Defense authorization bill, and we will continue on that bill tomorrow. Chairman Warner and Senator Levin will be here tomorrow. However, we will not have any rollcall votes during Friday's session. Senators should be reminded that there is a rollcall vote scheduled for Monday's session at 5:30 p.m. on a U.S. circuit judge, and there may be additional votes Monday evening on amendments to the Defense bill. ____________________
