"The reason I have entered into the Congressional Record the official statement of Senator Kirk is because, obviously, he can’t be here. He is in rehab at this point from a stroke he suffered in January, and there was an encouraging video released last week showing the progress he is making. We are all anxious for him to return. I promised him in a phone conversation last week that I would move this nomination as quickly as possible so that his nominee is approved. His statement now in the Record speaks to his feelings about Jay Tharp’s nomination, and it speaks for itself. I will now add my own comments."
