“we made some great progress this past week. I greatly--greatly--appreciate the work that we have done in a bipartisan manner. I want to thank my fellow colleagues across the aisle: Senator Warner, Senators Lummis, Hagerty, Chairman Scott, Senators Alsobrooks and Lisa Blunt Rochester. They really have been working hard to get a good product, and it was done in good faith. And I really want to thank my Republican colleagues for doing this. The reason you are hearing some hesitancy is the legislation of this scope and importance really just cannot be rushed, and we need time both to educate our colleagues and people. We are not shutting down. We don't want to shut this down to the point where we are ending all this work that we have put into it. We want to bring this economy and this innovation to the United States, and I am asking for that time. I want to be clear that you do have enough Members across the aisle who want to see this passed in a good manner. So what I am going to be asking for is that we collapse today's vote and Monday's vote into a single vote on Monday. I believe there is a pathway for us to actually get this done, get good language, and have a bipartisan win for this country. All this agreement is asking for is simply to combine today's and Monday's vote. It would not add or reduce any floor time compared to just taking this vote today. So I ask for unanimous consent to do that. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?”
