Mr. President, I send another resolution to the desk on\nbehalf of myself and Senator Daschle and ask for its immediate\nconsideration.\n  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the resolution by title.\n  The legislative clerk read as follows:\n\n       A resolution (S. Res. 392) tendering the thanks of the\n     Senate to the Senate Staff for the courteous, dignified, and\n     impartial manner in which they have assisted the\n     deliberations of the Senate.\n\n  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the\nresolution.\n  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the resolution\nbe agreed to and the motion to reconsider be laid upon the table.\n  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.\n  The resolution (S. Res. 392) was agreed to, as follows:\n\n                              S. Res. 392\n\n       Resolved, That the thanks of the Senate are hereby tendered\n     to the Secretary of the Senate, the Sergeant at Arms of the\n     Senate, the Secretary for the Majority, the Secretary for the\n     Minority, and the floor staff of the two parties for the\n     courteous, dignified, and impartial manner in which they have\n     assisted the deliberations of the Senate during the second\n     session of the One Hundred Sixth Congress.\n\n  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I want to just expound a bit on this\nresolution. We are deeply indebted to these staff members, including\nthose at the table in front of us. They are so efficient. They are so\ninformed. They save us many times from ourselves. They are here early.\nThey are here late. And, of course, all of the clerks, the\nParliamentarians, and the representatives who are here do a magnificent\njob. We do not always say we appreciate it enough, but we do. We could\nnot make it without them.\n  This resolution is the very least we could do to say we appreciate\nthem.\n  Mr. DASCHLE addressed the Chair.\n  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Democratic leader.\n  Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. President, again, I want to identify myself with the\nremarks of the majority leader. These staff are the best there could\nbe. I thank them, on behalf of the entire Senate, for their hard work,\nfor their professionalism, for the level of commitment they make each\nand every time they come to work. I thank them for what they do. There\nare so many ways we ought to stop throughout the year and express\nourselves in as heartfelt a way as we can, but at least now at the end\nof this Congress, we ought to say--with an exclamation point--thank\nyou.\n  Thank you for what you do. Thank you for who you are. Thank you for\nwhat you give each and every day.\n  Mr. REID addressed the Chair.\n  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Nevada.\n\n[[Page S11854]]\n\n  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that I be added as a\ncosponsor to each of these resolutions that have just been offered: S.\nRes. 388, S. Res. 389, S. Res. 390, S. Res. 391, and S. Res. 392.\n  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. The\nSenator from Nevada will be added as a cosponsor to the resolutions.\n  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, those are all of the resolutions we have at\nthis time.\n  I know the distinguished Senator from Alaska, the chairman of the\nAppropriations Committee, will probably have some remarks about the\nbill we have been working on for so long now.\n  We have a few other items.\n\n                          ____________________"]], "columns": ["granule_id", "date", "congress", "session", "volume", "issue", "title", "chamber", "granule_class", "sub_granule_class", "page_start", "page_end", "speakers", "bills", "citation", "full_text"], "primary_keys": ["granule_id"], "primary_key_values": ["CREC-2000-12-15-pt1-PgS11853-2"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.144434092566371, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
