Today, we are beginning debate on the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005--a big title for S. 256. But it is an important debate. It is the first time in 4 years the Senate has debated bankruptcy reform legislation. I hope it is going to be a fair and informed and beneficial debate that will improve this bipartisan bill and help us enact bankruptcy reform into law.
