ORDER FOR ADJOURNMENT
Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that when the
Senate completes its business today, it stand in adjournment under the
provisions of S. Con. Res. 51 until 12 noon on Tuesday, September 6,
2005, unless the House has not adopted S. Con. Res. 51, in which case
the Senate shall stand adjourned until 4 p.m. on Friday, September 2,
2005.
The ACING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered.
Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, I want to take this final opportunity to
thank our colleagues for their assistance in getting this emergency
funding considered so quickly. We will be returning to business on
Tuesday, and we will be monitoring the situation in all of the affected
States as we mentioned tonight--really a much larger region in fact,
the whole country--over the next several days.
Our hearts, as has been spelled out and articulated so well by my
colleagues, and especially our prayers, go out to the people of those
States as we pull together and capture the best of what America
represents; that is, the support of, in times of crisis, each other as
a nation in order to get through these unanticipated, unprecedented
challenges for us.
