Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, if I might, again, 9,000 is remarkable--the ``iron'' Senator. And she was asked by the Washington Post 12 years ago why she had never missed a vote, why she made a decision to make every vote. And this is what she said:
I think it's important at this time, when public confidence in Congress is very low, to demonstrate to my constituents that I really care about doing a good job for them.
For 27 straight years and 9,000 straight votes, she has delivered every single day for the people of Maine, for the people of this country. And I am grateful to have the privilege and opportunity to serve with her, as I think every single one of us is--not only those who are here today but those who have come before. It is a remarkable achievement.
Senator Collins, thank you. Thank you for your record. Thank you for your example.
(Applause.)
