The Senate continued work on a spending bill for the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education. Members paused at approximately 3:40 p.m. for a moment of silence to honor U.S. troops killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. The time was taken as news of the 2000th American casualty in the war was reported in the media. At approximately 4:05 p.m. Senator Obama gave a brief tribute to civil rights icon Rosa Parks, who died the previous day. close
