                      WELCOMING OUR NEW COLLEAGUES

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, on an entirely different matter, this 
is an exciting week for the Senate. For one thing, we are beginning to 
welcome several new Members to our ranks. They may not be sworn in 
until January, but these new Senators-elect are already arriving in 
town for orientation events and to vote in their party's leadership 
elections.
  I know I speak for all of my colleagues in issuing each of our future 
colleagues, on both sides of the aisle, our hearty congratulations and 
a warm welcome. We are looking forward to working with all of these new 
colleagues.
