Madam President, I want to talk about my motivation for offering this unanimous consent request. The people listening to the debate may not understand, but we have a courtesy in the Senate where we make colleagues on the other side of the aisle aware of our intent. Before I do that, I yield the floor to Senator Durbin. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Illinois. Unanimous Consent Request--S. 3263
