BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT
Mr. REID. Mr. President, before I ask this be completed, I am glad this is being done. I am disappointed it is only until the end of February.
I traveled to Bolivia, Peru, and Ecuador. This is so important to those countries. I am glad we will get it extended. It would have expired at the end of this month. It will not expire now. I hope by next February we can have a multiyear extension. I have spoken to Senators Grassley and Baucus. I hope that is the case.
