Frist on Pension Bill

Today on the Senate floor, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist called the House-passed pension reform bill (H.R. 4) “must-pass” legislation, claiming the Senate will clear the bill by the end of this week.

Senator Frist said, “It's just this simple: The pensions bill is must-pass. Must-pass!” He added, “The Senate must clear the pensions bill, clean, so the President can sign it this month. We will act, and pensions will get done, without amendment.”
