On the recordOctober 20, 2015
Madam President, as the vice chair and I have said numerous times this afternoon, nothing would make us happier than for Members to come to the floor. We have amendments pending. We have a managers' amendment. Everybody knows exactly what is in this bill. Let's start the debate. Let's vote on amendments. Let's end this process in a matter of days. We are prepared to vote on every amendment. So at this time, I ask unanimous consent that on Thursday, October 22, at 11 a.m., the Senate vote on the pending amendments to the Burr- Feinstein substitute to S. 754, with a 60-vote threshold for those amendments that are not germane; and that following the disposition of the amendments, the substitute, as amended, if amended, be agreed to, the bill, as amended, be read a third time, and the Senate vote on passage with a 60-vote threshold for passage. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
