David Vitter: “I would suggest, through the Chair to the distinguished majority…”

On the recordJune 27, 2007

I would suggest, through the Chair to the distinguished majority leader, that I have a real problem with depending on basically the other side's summary of these changes which are being made as we speak. So I would propound a new unanimous consent request, that if we have to do that, if that summary is lacking or inaccurate in any way, that all subsequent votes and actions of the Senate which are agreed to have no effect because we have depended on the other side's information and it could turn out to have been incomplete or inaccurate.
