Mr. President, I am not conflating Iran and Iraq. Iran right now is the threat, and, again, I ask my colleagues--none of whom have an answer--why wouldn't we do the due diligence, 30 additional days, to ask the DNI if what we are doing on the Senate floor right now undermines American deterrence relative to Iran? It is a simple request. It shows that we are acting to make sure we protect our troops in the region. And, again, 30 days is not a lot of time---- The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator's time has expired.
