I thank Senators on both sides of the aisle for working well this week on the appropriations process. We are off to a very good start. We have voted on six amendments in the last couple of days. We have about 20 others that we are close to agreement on and probably can adopt by voice vote. We have one amendment we are going to have to deal with. If it were not offered, then this would be the last vote for the day. If it needs to be dealt with, then we are going to have to deal with it following this vote. So I wanted Members to know, unless we get agreement, we will be having at least one more vote following this vote. Vote on Amendment No. 2983 The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question occurs on agreeing to amendment No. 2983.
