On the recordMarch 18, 2013
My consent has been agreed to. In response to my friend from Kansas, everyone can give a heart-rending speech. We have tens of thousands of children who will not able to go to Head Start. I think that is pretty compelling. There are many other people in this body who could give a tearjerker--just like the Senator tried to do. This is about compromise. We are trying to work through this so we can continue to fund the government and set up a pattern in this Congress so we can have appropriation bills for 2014. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Donnelly). Is there objection to the request? Without objection, it is so ordered. The Senator from Maryland.
