A bipartisan fiscal commission will not be easy for any single person on this side of the aisle or this side of the aisle to vote for.
Ladies and gentlemen, it was an entirely different situation. Forget the fact that Republicans and Democrats were working better together, we were not in the fiscal hole we are in now.
I am glad we are having the conversation up here today about the prospects of a continuing resolution, because you can probably count me as pessimistic about this committee's ability, for a lot of reasons, to get responsible legislation…
The ultimate bipartisan commission in this Nation is called the Congress, and this Congress, as imperfect as it is, is where these decisions must be made.
