Mr. REID. Mr. President, I read through these bills very quickly but
a tremendous amount of work has gone into getting to the point where we
are, especially by the floor staff, to make sure that the majority and
the minority have signed off on this, and all the committees, and the
fact that we have been working through this list for weeks. Anyway, it
is good work done by everyone.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Oklahoma.
Mr. NICKLES. Mr. President, these are items that have support. Most
of these are items that have been reported through the Energy
Committee. They have bipartisan support. These are Democrat and
Republican bills.
I appreciate the cooperation of the assistant majority leader in
finally passing these items.
Mr. REID. Mr. President, I am going to suggest the absence of a
quorum. We are contacting a Senator to clear another item that the
administration wants.
I suggest the absence of a quorum.
The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Graham). The absence of a quorum having
been suggested, the clerk will call the roll.
The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent the order for the
quorum call be rescinded.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
Mr. REID. Mr. President, I say to my friend, the call was a success,
and Mitch Daniels will be very happy.
