Bill Nelson actually said...

"this is about the foundation of our democracy and that we as a government ought to be doing more to defend ourselves."

"this is not a partisan issue. This can happen to either party or the non-party candidates as well. It ought to be all hands on deck."

"A bipartisan bill must provide consumer protections that are better than is in the current law."

"It would be better for Congress to pass no bill than to pass a bill that provides less protections to the consumers compared to the status quo."
