Political Quotes

“we have one more vote. We will have 4 minutes of debate and then a vote on final passage. This is important legislation. The President's speech is at 7 o'clock. We will gather here at 6:30 to proceed to the House Chamber. When the President's speech is over, we will come back here, and I will move to proceed to the debt ceiling vote that we know is coming. If that motion to proceed fails, then we will be through for the week as far as votes go. If the vote to proceed is affirmative in nature, we will be back tomorrow, and there will be 10 hours allowed, but we don't have to use it all. We will have to finish this matter tomorrow. I think it is clear that I hope we don't proceed to that, but we will have to see. I am here tomorrow. That vote will start very quickly tonight, as soon as the speech is over. We will be in recess subject to the call of the Chair. The vote will start quickly. Also, I have talked to the Republican leader about how we are going to proceed next week. We don't have that defined, but I am waiting to hear from the Speaker, either tonight or tomorrow, to make more definite what we need to do next week. Again, we have one more vote after the President's speech tonight. Mr. President, I move to reconsider the last vote.”
