Political Quotes

“Madam President, following leader remarks, if any, the Senate will proceed to S. Res. 591, which is a resolution recognizing and honoring the 20th anniversary of the enactment of the Americans with Disabilities Act. There will be 2 hours for debate. It will be divided equally between Senators Harkin and Enzi or their designees. Upon the use or yielding back of that time, the Senate will proceed to the consideration of H.J. Res. 83, which is a joint resolution approving the renewal of import restrictions contained in the Burmese Freedom and Democracy Act. There will then be up to 20 minutes for debate equally divided between Senators Baucus and McConnell or their designees. Upon the use or yielding back of that time, the Senate will proceed to vote on the resolutions. The first vote will be on the Burma joint resolution, and the next vote will be on the Americans with disabilities resolution. We hope these votes will begin at around 12 o'clock today, maybe a little sooner. Following the votes, the Senate will resume consideration of the small business jobs bill. As a reminder, last night I filed three cloture motions relative to the small business jobs bill. I hope we can reach an agreement to have these votes today. If no agreement is reached, we would have the first cloture vote tomorrow morning. Senators will be notified when any additional votes, other than those I have mentioned, will be brought up. ____________________”
