I would say to the Senator from Iowa, we better not push our luck asking for both the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control from Senator Cruz. In all honesty, we are not sending any letters. This is reckless and irresponsible, to threaten the lives of people going for clinical trials at the National Institutes of Health. To quote from a distant past in this Chamber, in this Congress, ``Have they no shame?'' Have they no shame, to shut down the Government of the United States of America, endangering the lives of individuals over a political temper tantrum?
