as Senator Vitter has pointed out, right now we are on the motion to proceed to the trade bill. We are not on the Iran sanctions bill.

I know of no further debate on the bill, as amended. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there further debate? If not, the bill having been read the third time, the question is, Shall the bill pass? The bill (S. 920), as amended, was passed.
