It certainly is ironic at the least. It is an opportunity for the Republican House to argue for its budget. I voted against the final version of the Senate budget, but I think we should go to conference and try to work out an agreement. The instructions suggested by the Senator from Arizona are entirely reasonable. Let's get on with the process. Let's do what the American people expect us to do; that is, to negotiate a conference report that then would be brought back to both Houses for consideration. That is what I urge my colleagues to do. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The majority leader.
