Jon Tester: “It is not fair, it is not right, and it is not the way the program should work.”

I ask unanimous consent that the Tester- Daines substitute amendment at the desk be agreed to and the bill, as amended, be considered read a third time. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. The amendment (No. 2074)…

That's because I don't want this race to be nationalized any more than they want it to be nationalized. I'm going to talk about Montana. That's what this race is about.

I know of no further debate on the bill, as amended. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The bill having been read the third time and there being no further debate, the question is, Shall the bill pass? The bill (S. 1987), as amended, was passed.

This is -- what's gone on the last two weeks or so, 10 days, has been nothing short of craziness.
