                       SENATOR-ELECT SCOTT BROWN

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, the Senate's newest Member is coming 
down from Massachusetts today. We will have a chance to welcome 
Senator-elect Brown to the Capitol. Obviously, we are delighted to have 
him.
  Senator-elect Brown has captured the attention of the entire country, 
but he has captured the attention of Massachusetts voters first. The 
people of Massachusetts sent a very strong message. They were looking 
for someone who would help change the direction in Washington. They put 
their hope in the candidate whose views reflected the kind of change 
they were looking for.
  So we welcome Senator-elect Brown to the Senate, and we look forward 
to working with him to bring about the change that Americans are 
telling us they want. We need to show them we are listening.
