ORDER OF BUSINESS
Mrs. BOXER. Mr. President, I know Senator Collins would like to
speak, so the way I would recommend we go is 5 minutes to Senator
Manchin, 15 minutes for me, and how many minutes for the Senator from
Maine?
Ms. COLLINS. I thank the Senator from California. This is not going
to
[[Page S7575]]
work for me, so I am going to return to my office. I understand this
was unanticipated, and that is the way it goes sometimes.
Mrs. BOXER. I am so sorry. This has been a contentious matter.
So I would say to Senator Manchin, if you want to go first, then I
will follow, and I am sure Senator Thune will have comments.
Mr. THUNE. I will request, through the Chair, if the Senator from
Maine is not going to speak, that I be allowed to speak at the
conclusion of the remarks of the Senator from California and the
Senator from West Virginia.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
The Senator from West Virginia.
Mr. MANCHIN. Mr. President, I thank my colleague from California.
