                WELCOMING SENATOR BROWN OF MASSACHUSETTS

  Mr. McCONNELL. Madam President, a little earlier today the 
Massachusetts Secretary of State formally certified the election of 
Scott Brown as the new Senator and the newest Member of this body. He 
will come to Washington and be sworn in on the Senate floor, as is 
customary, later today. We all look forward to welcoming him. The 
people of Massachusetts are eager to have Senator Brown working on 
their behalf, and Republicans look forward to having him join our 
conference. This was certainly a high-profile election, but now it is 
time to get to work.
  I yield the floor.
