Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that I be allowed to engage in a colloquy with my Republican colleagues--Senators Roberts, Portman, Hoeven, Blunt, and Isakson--and in the event the minority leader does appear to offer comments, that we interrupt our colloquy for the minority leader to speak. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered. ____________________
