On the recordApril 4, 2001
In the 106th Congress, an overwhelming majority of the United States Senate agreed, and approved a bipartisan pay parity amendment by a vote of 94 to 6 during consideration of legislation I introduced providing important pay increases for the military--S. 4, the Soldiers', Sailors', Airmen's, and Marines Bill of Rights. I know that Chairman Domenici supported that Federal employee pay parity amendment, and has been an advocate for pay parity through his position on the Budget Committee.
