  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, this National Flood Insurance Enhanced 
Borrowing Authority Act of 2005 is another example of the bills we are 
bringing to the Senate floor and working on in a bipartisan way because 
we are addressing quickly, responsively, and aggressively the natural 
disaster hurricane and its aftermath. There have been several of these 
bills over the last week, and we will continue to address them as they 
are presented to us and as they come forward--again, working together 
in a bipartisan way.
