On the recordNovember 9, 2005
So I urge my colleagues we must show some restraint as we are going through a number of valid and important increments in pay and benefits for the men and women in the Armed Forces. In essence, the Chambliss amendment is an adaptation of the Durbin amendment but at one-tenth the cost because I think you are more equitably treating those who have served in periods of active service. I thank the Senator. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Michigan is recognized.
