The future of our Nation remains strong because these individuals

our Nation and to uphold the ideals upon which it was founded. Indeed,
these New Jerseyans represent the very best of America, and they should
rest assured that the full support of the U.S. Senate, as well as the
American people, are with them in whatever challenges may lie ahead.
It is thanks to the dedication of untold numbers of patriots like
these that we are able to meet here today, in the U.S. Senate, and
openly debate the best solutions to the many and diverse problems that
confront our country. It is thanks to their sacrifices that the United
States of America remains a beacon of hope and freedom throughout the
world. We owe them, along with all those who serve our country, a deep
debt of gratitude.
