However, there is much more work to be done. This amendment is a good first step on the road to a comprehensive response to food safety. In March 2005, Senator Kennedy and I announced that we were working to develop a comprehensive response on another FDA issue, which is drug safety. The bill on the floor this week is a direct result of that announcement and that pledge to work together. So when I pledge today to work to develop a comprehensive response on food safety, you can have some sense that I do mean that. I want my colleagues to work quickly and diligently to get this amendment to the point where we can accept it.
