                        THANKING SENATOR INHOFE

  Mrs. BOXER. Mr. President, before my colleague, Senator Inhofe, 
leaves the floor, I truly wish to say to him, as my chairman, how much 
I have enjoyed working with him on the Environment and Public Works 
Committee. What an important bill we have done, all of us together, 
across party lines. I am very hopeful we can see this bill move forward 
so the American people can move forward with their lives. They need the 
highways. They need the transit. They need the jobs this bill promises.
  I wished to thank him before he left the floor.
