Madam President, I intend to offer the following motion to H.R. 1628, and I ask unanimous consent that it be printed in the Record. The motion is supported by Senator Udall. There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in the Record, as follows: Motion to Commit With Instructions Mr. Franken moves to commit the bill H.R. 1628 to the Committee on Finance with instructions to report the same back to the Senate in 3 days, not counting any day on which the Senate is not in session, with changes that-- (1) are within the jurisdiction of such committee; and (2) ensure that no provision of the bill would-- (A) exacerbate the state of emergency regarding opioids in Indian country; (B) reduce funding for the Indian Health Service or Medicaid such that Indians or Alaskan Natives would experience a decrease in access or services; or (C) cause any cost or shift to the Indian Health Service for services that are currently paid for by Medicaid.
