On the recordDecember 11, 2014
following my remarks and those of the Republican leader, the Senate will resume consideration of the motion to concur in the House amendment to the Senate amendment to H.R. 3979, the defense authorization bill. At 10:30 a.m., there will be a cloture vote on the motion to concur on the defense authorization bill. Mr. President, the work we are going to do on this defense authorization bill is extremely important for our country. I will have more to say about that in just a minute. ____________________
