I am curious to know when the Senator plans to complete her remarks. At the beginning of her remarks, she assured the Senate that she would take about 30 minutes. We are on the conference report on the supplemental appropriations bill which is an urgent supplemental bill. We have about 4 hours divided among Senators on both sides to complete debate. I don't want to push the Senate into the evening hours, if we are going to have a prolonged discussion of this issue when we thought it was going to be 30 minutes. It is almost an hour now.
