On the recordOctober 12, 2013
I know the Members of the Senate are going to be retiring to caucuses to try to figure out how we are going to move forward, and I am confident, with the good work of the people in this Chamber, we will find a way. Senator Johanns and I have been working, along with many of our colleagues, to try to come to some resolution about funding a city in the United States, the District of Columbia, that is not an agency of the Federal Government that happens to be the city that the seat of government sits in. While I am not going to ask for consent now, I want to, through the Chair, ask Senator Johanns to express, if he could, a few views about this, as we try to work our way forward for sometime maybe later this afternoon. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Nebraska.
