If I could ask my colleague a question, isn't it true, I say to Senator Durbin, that the bill you are talking about, the clean bill Senator Mikulski and I have introduced, is the legislation that was agreed to last December by Senator Mikulski, when she was chair of the Appropriations Committee, and Hal Rogers, chair of the House Appropriations Committee? It was a bipartisan agreement, a bicameral agreement, and each side gave some. What is at issue here is not that underlying bill. What is at issue are the five riders, the amendments the House put on, that have nothing to do with funding the Department of Homeland Security.

I’m proud to join this bipartisan effort that will cut administrative red tape, save money and make it easier for the Coast Guard to effectively collaborate with the coastal communities it protects.
