                        FREEDOM FOR BOB LEVINSON

  Mr. NELSON of Florida. Mr. President, over the recess we marked a sad 
anniversary: 2,000 days since retired FBI agent Bob Levinson went 
missing in Iran. That is 2,000 days Christine Levinson has been without 
her husband and 2,000 days their children have missed his laugh. There 
has been an empty seat at the family table for far too long. Last year 
we received proof that Bob was alive, most likely somewhere in 
Southwest Asia. It is time for him to come home. Mr. President, our 
Government must continue doing all it can to win his safe return, and I 
join Bob's family in calling on those who are holding Bob to set him 
free.
