I ask the clock not start running right away. Senator Capito and I want to just raise an issue with the Chair and our colleagues. That last vote took about 50 minutes--50 minutes--and they are getting longer, not shorter. And Senator Capito and I want to use this as an opportunity just to start a conversation amongst our colleagues, see if we can't do better than that, maybe a lot better than that. So start thinking about it, and we would be interested to hear from you.
