Mr. WHITEHOUSE. Mr. President, I know my friend and colleague, Senator Snowe, is about to deliver some remarks. I ask unanimous consent that I be recognized at the conclusion of her statement. I wish to take a moment to thank her for her work with me on the bill I am going to be talking about. She will be talking about something else, but I will be discussing the National Endowment for the Oceans. While we are in the Chamber together, I express my gratitude for the collegial, thoughtful, helpful way we worked together on this bipartisan piece of legislation.

Mr. WHITEHOUSE. Mr. President, I have the floor by virtue of a previous unanimous consent, but I understand the Senator from Louisiana wishes to say something briefly while Senator Snowe is still on the floor. So I would be happy to yield. I would be happy if I could have the floor returned to me at the conclusion of their exchange.
