“might I urge our colleagues to try to help us move through this. If we don't get cooperation, we are going to be here until Saturday morning. If you lay out the number of amendments that are pending here, we are going to be here until Saturday morning. We urge colleagues, let's get these amendments done in 10 minutes. Please, colleagues who have amendments that don't have to be offered here, please withhold; otherwise, literally we are here until Saturday morning. Amendment No. 3061 The PRESIDING OFFICER.
