Mr. GREGG. Mr. President, I suggest the absence of a quorum.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll.
The assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
Mr. CONRAD. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order for
the quorum call be dispensed with.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
Mr. CONRAD. Mr. President, we are very close to being able to move
toward final passage, but we still have a number of amendments to
dispose of. If we can just have the patience of the body for a few more
minutes, we can dispose of these final amendments and move toward final
passage.
First of all, I think it is important to thank colleagues--dozens of
colleagues--who have given their amendments in the last hour--we
appreciate it very much--and others who were able to work with us to
get their amendments agreed to as the chairman has just reviewed.
The next amendment is Senator Ensign. We ask colleagues to give the
Senator from Nevada their attention.
