Ethics. minimum wage. the continuing resolution. the 9/11 recommendations and the budgetit is a record of which all of us can be proud. But. of course. we have so much more to do. From stem cell to immigration to energy. there are challenges ahead. and this week the Senate will turn its attention to the most pressing challenge of them allthe debacle of Iraq. Today we begin consideration of the 2007 supplemental appropriations bill. This legislation includes more than $121 billion.
