“I am very confused. Yesterday there was an agreement there would be a vote. What is my colleague's understanding? OK, we just need to have some more time. So I recommend the Senator stay on the floor so we can get a colleague on the floor. That would be great. After we do that, I am going to encourage my friend to take some time and go into why it is so critical we pay attention to the oceans of our country, what is happening to the state of our oceans, and what is happening to the quality of our oceans, given so many factors, including the changes we are experiencing in climate, because he is a great expert on that. Does my friend want some time now? I would like to see if I can get us to the yeas and nays. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Rhode Island.”
