Reclaiming my time, I would say to my friend that I wouldn't want anyone to be confused who is listening to this debate that we can't find agreement on this in a bipartisan way. Why would folks come to that conclusion?

All the way back to the beginning they were not extended on party-line votes alone. They were extended in a bipartisan, bicameral way.
