                            THE HIGHWAY BILL

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, let me just say to all Senators that we 
are making progress on the highway bill, and we are setting the vote 
for next Tuesday to allow the bipartisan supporters of a longer term 
bill a couple of days to complete the draft substitute.

[[Page S5134]]

  Chairman Inhofe, Senator Boxer, and a bipartisan group of Senators 
are working out the final language. I want to thank them for their 
efforts, and I hope we will find a way to go forward on a multiyear, 
paid-for highway bill.
