             SENATOR BIDEN'S FAREWELL SPEECH TO THE SENATE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, Senator Biden is here to give his farewell 
address to the U.S. Senate. Over the many decades he has served in the 
Senate, he has given many speeches in the Senate. We all look forward 
to his final remarks, recognizing the loss of his service in the Senate 
is significant. However, being Vice President, he will still be 
President of the Senate.
  I will always remember Senator Biden telling me, after the time he 
had been selected to be Vice President: I am a Senate guy. I will 
always be a Senate guy.
