The Rules Committee often rules on issues based on who is trying to do what to whom and what are the various amendments that people are seeking. but there was always one person who spoke about the compassion of the issues that were before the Rules Committee. and that was SALA. I worked with her very closely on the offshore drilling issue and there again was the sense of compassion. compassion about the resources of our coastline and the need to protect our great State. so it is that great sense of compassion that we lose with the loss of SALA BURTON. As the son of immigrants. I can say that she being an immigrant. I think I felt a very special relationship to her because she brought all those instincts that I saw in my parents to her job of kindness. of toughness and again of compassion. So as we express our concerns here today.
