Heidi Alexander said "I congratulate Senator Sessions and Senator Coburn for their principled remarks about the phenomenon of Washington spending. We are borrowing 40 cents of every dollar we spend. We cannot keep spending money we do not have. And we want to save Medicare. So those two major difficult decisions are things that we need to work on together--to stop spending money we do not have and saving Medicare. We can do both if we put our minds to it. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent to speak for up to 15 minutes. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
