Phil -
Feel free to jump on the call w Chiefs at noon tomorrow or 4pm w
Senators.  If you can't, we will tell them details to come and we will
be having mtgs soon.

I talked a to a few folks today as well. It feels like the House is
hungering for more detail than the Senate.

I will be in DC tomorrow night as well.
