and i see him here on the floor, and i want to publicly again thank senator lamar alexander for being a great partner in all these efforts. senator alexander will be taking the helm of this great committee in the next congress. senator alexander certainly has the background to lead this committee, but he also combines that background with a keen mind and a good heart, and i wish him continued success as the new chairman of the help committee. the fourth issue that i hope future senates will take care of concerns the u.n. convention on the rights of people with disabilities. i don't think anything has saddened me more in my 30 years here in the senate than the failure of this body to ratify the convention on the rights of people with disabilities. or the crpd, as it's known. it's been ratified by 150 nations. it's modeled after our own americans with disabilities act. it has broad and deep support throughout our country. supported by the u.s. chamber of commerce, the business roundtable, veterans' groups, every disability organization, every former living president, every former republ

we removed a couple of programs that were absolutely necessary to satisfy kay bailey or lamar alexander, and we lad ourselves a $44 billion bill over five years on which we agreed. we didn't have to have a vote. senator hutchinson, and senator alexander, tenaciously worked to clear the holds. it was, madam president, absolutely beautiful. it was just beautiful. a $44 billion program to reinvigorate our nation, cerebrally and productively. we catapulted to success. reaching moments like those requires persistence, demandses collaboration, it demand trust and compromise. and it is so worth it. i'm driven by the process of creating policy. i love doing that. it's grinding. it's intense, can be frustrating and sometimes heartbreaking. often heartbreaking but when we accomplish something that is meaningful to the people who entrust to us represent them there is no greater reward. we have to know who and what we must fight for in our work. and in our own personal views. we have to know and understand those who will benefit, those who will lose, and we have to be ready for it to take a long ti

. >> this is one of the reasons why lamar alexander from tennessee, when they get the majority in theet rid of the national labor relations board. if that were to happen, what avenue do these workers have? >> well, they will have the avenue of protests, of economic pressure, of continuing to organize in different ways. but obviously, ed, that would be a tragedy and something that we will work and try and fight against happening. but look, these workers are strong. like martha, they're fearless, they're tough, they're speaking up, they're losing their jobs, they're having their hours cut. but they won't be silenced. a thousand protests, that's a big, big deal. >> martha, don't you feel that this is the time to protest now that you've got a legal ruling to your side? >> absolutely. we need to do something large to follow this up with. >> well, this should set the stage for some more protests and some more people stepping up against walmart and sticking up for the workers. this is a big ruling, let's see where it all goes. it's going to be appealed of course by the company. great to have

i know my good friend, senator lamar alexander, who was a part of a bipartisan group of eight who worked closely and successfully together on this issue in 2012 as proposed something similar. such action by the senate next year would be a welcome victory for comity and for compromise. and it would, i hope, represent a step back from a precedent that leads to effective rules changes by simple majority. it would be a step towards a better functioning senate. no leader alone, no single senator, neither party by itself can determine the senate's course. together, acting together, the members of this body can move the senate forward and in doing so help move forward the nation that we all love. i will enjoy reading about the senate's progress in the years ahead. as barbara and i are sitting on a lake michigan beach or showing the world to our grandkids. i thank the chair. i thank my dear friends, the leaders of this body. i see my brother sitting here and i'm not allowed to refer to my family in the gallery, so i won't do that.
