On the recordMarch 14, 2012
I ask unanimous consent that all of the cloture votes scheduled for 2:30 today be vitiated. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection? Without objection, it is so ordered. The minority leader is recognized. Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I associate myself with the excellent remarks of the majority leader about Senator Boxer and Senator Inhofe. They have worked together in a collegial way to bring us to this point on the highway bill. The majority leader and I have worked out an agreement to go forward and handle the judges. Also, I am pleased that he has agreed to turn to the jobs bill next. I think that is something everybody in the Senate will be pleased about. So I am happy to say we have reached an understanding, which we will have an opportunity to explain to our colleagues. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The majority leader.
