         PROPOSALS FOR SAFE REIMPORTATION OF PRESCRIPTION DRUGS

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, I announce for the information of my 
colleagues that, in consultation with the chairman of the Senate 
Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions, Senator Dorgan, 
Senator Stabenow, Senator McCain, Senator Cochran, and other interested 
Senators, the Senate will begin a process for developing proposals that 
would allow for the safe reimportation of FDA-approved prescription 
drugs.
