think about senator bennet's and hatch's bill, the promise for antibiotic and therapeutics for health which establishes a new path way for antibacterial and antifungal drugs. i think about senator casey and senator isakson working on the advancing hope act which will extend the pediatric review voucher program until 2020, incentivizes drug companies to research treatment for life-altering diseases that impact pediatric patients. inside this bill are all sorts of good, important, bipartisan achievements. as senator alexander noted, there's also help for people suffering from addiction. the fact of the matter is, in my tiny little state, only 1% of the nation's population, we're going to have over 800 people die. we have an awful lot of people showing up with overdoses in our emergency rooms that have no place to go, that have no detox programs, in a long-term this $1 billion authorized in legislation to fight the opioid epidemic, that will save lives in my little state. finally on the issue of mental health, senator cassidy and more alexander and myself who were on the floor last week

the bill includes the gold king mine spill recovery, as championed by senators bennet, gardner, udall to get costs incurred by state tribes and local governments with the king mines bill. this includes rehabilitation of high hazard tension dams. this authorizes fema assistance to states to rehabilitate unsafe dams. there are 14,726 high-hazard potential dams in the united states. what that means is that definition means that if a dam fails, lives are at stake, so the program will be prevent loss of lives. the wrda bill is bipartisan and will play a critical role in addressing problems faced by community, states and our country as a whole. earlier this week, senator boxer said that the house republicans ruined a beautiful bill because of -- because some of them -- quote -- wanted to flex their muscles. i don't know about that, but i do agree with her, this is a beautiful bill because it does things that we haven't had the courage to get done before, so we want to make sure this does pass. so the house passed the wrda bill with the provisions by a 3/4 vote. 360 votes. i can't think of a

chairman grassley, many of our senior members have worked very hard with me and our colleagues, senator bennet from colorado who has devoted an enormous amount of attention to the needs of youngsters. and i've been on the floor tonight really for the last five or six hours trying to resolve remaining concerns. now, we had a hotline months and months ago on this bill, and there really wasn't much reaction at the outset. finally there were three members that had concerns. we moved to address them. chairman brady has been particularly gracious on the other side of the capitol saying if a state needed more time, if there were questions with respect to whether they could meet some of the criteria, he was open to giving them that kind of additional time. but i'll tell you, mr. president, i told my constituents this fall that probably nothing is more important to me than to come back here and pursue what i call principled bipartisanship. bipartisanship is not about taking each other's bad ideas. anybody can do that. that's a piece of cake. principled bipartisanship is about taking good ideas, taking

the people in california, certainly senators, gardner, bennet -- it's in this bill. the bill includes rehabilitation of high-hazard potential dams. a section of the bill authorizes fema assistance to states to rehabilitate the unsafe dams. and there are -- this is something. there are 14,724 what they call high-hazard potential dams in the united states. that means that if a dam fails, lives are at stake. the program will prevent loss of lives. you know, we've talked about this on the floor. that's a significant thing. 14,726. and i just think it's -- you know, the wrda bill is bipartisan. it will play a critical role in addressing problems faced in the communities. let me repeat some of these. i want to make sure everybody understands how long we've been talking about the flint, michigan, tragedy -- for a long time. ness here. the -- it's in here. the solution here. the bill we just passed, that's an appropriation. but the authorization has to be there. and i would say this -- since i am looking across to the two senators from michigan, i know they're concerned with
