The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.
“PRIVILEGES OF THE FLOOR” mentioning the U.S. Dept of State was published in the Senate section on pages S1158 on Feb. 7, 2001.
The publication is reproduced in full below:

Mr. HELMS. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent, on behalf of Senator Biden, that Paul Foldi, a State Department fellow on the staff of the Foreign Relations Committee, be granted floor privileges during the consideration of S. 248.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
