For Immediate Release

DODD TERRORISM INSURANCE LEGISLATION SIGNED INTO LAW

November 26, 2002

I commend the President for signing this bill, which is a measured, common-sense approach that will help ensure construction sites continue to operate, workers continue to fuel our nation's economic engine, and the threat of future attacks on our economy is minimized. It certainly wasn't easy, but I'm proud that we ultimately were able to respond in a bipartisan fashion to meet this pressing challenge. Our nation will be stronger because of this bill.
