                      EVERY STUDENT SUCCEEDS BILL

  Mrs. MURRAY. Mr. President, let me echo the words of our chairman and 
thank him, our staff and everyone who has worked on this and everyone 
who has supported this in a bipartisan way to send it now to the 
President to be signed into law.
  It is a great step forward. As the chairman, Senator Alexander, just

said, the work must now begin in our schools, in our communities, and 
in our States to find ways to make sure all of our students achieve. We

the promise of this bill.
  Thank you, Mr. President.
  I yield the floor.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from New York.
