                      CONGRATULATING SENATOR ENZI

  Mr. NICKLES. Madam President, I must rise to congratulate our 
colleague, the new Senator from Wyoming, Senator Enzi, for his 
statement. I think it is an outstanding statement--his first speech, as 
I understand it, on the floor on our first legislative day. I just wish 
to compliment him. I hope every American could hear that speech, a very 
well-thought-out speech on the necessity and importance of a balanced 
budget amendment.
  I think Senator Enzi's credentials are certainly meritorious of that 
statement, the fact he is an accountant by trade, a businessman, former 
State legislator as well as mayor. I compliment him and thank him for 
his well-thought-out speech. I hope everyone will pay attention to it 
and follow his advice and pass this amendment.
  I thank him again for his speech.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from New Hampshire.
  Mr. GREGG. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent to proceed as in 
morning business for a period of 5 minutes.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
