The Senate met pursuant to adjournment.

     Our Father in Heaven, an old Roman maxim states, "Without a name a man is nothing." When people speak our name, we want it to be with respect. When our name is attached to anything, a bill, a debt, a contract, a promise or a piece of legislation, we want it to be something of which we can be proud. Lord, help us to live and work so that our name will only be associated with those ideals and ideas that are good. Amen.
