I personally was involved and enjoyed working on such bills as the telecommunications reform legislation. which was a mighty effort that had been in the making for 10 years. We had good bipartisan cooperation on that. We did get small business tax relief and. of course. we have all talked about welfare reform. health insurance reform. illegal immigration and the monumental task of putting together the omnibus appropriations bill without extensions of time. and we got it done. I think we should rightfully take pride as we went along with more and more bipartisan effort. not always cooperation but we were working together and we were able to get an agreement on a number of issues that looked as if we might not be able to just days or weeks ago. When I was first elected majority leader in June. the Senate was. frankly. in a logjam situation with regard to several key issues.
