[[Page S9942]]
Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the bill be
read a third time and passed, the motion to reconsider be laid upon the
table, and that any statements relating to the bill be printed in the
Record.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
The bill (H.R. 3669) was read the third time, and passed.
Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, this National Flood Insurance Enhanced
Borrowing Authority Act of 2005 is another example of the bills we are
bringing to the Senate floor and working on in a bipartisan way because
we are addressing quickly, responsively, and aggressively the natural
disaster hurricane and its aftermath. There have been several of these
bills over the last week, and we will continue to address them as they
are presented to us and as they come forward--again, working together
in a bipartisan way.
