Following any leader remarks, I will make a motion to concur in the House message to accompany S. 365, the legislative vehicle for the debt limit compromise. The time until noon will be equally divided and controlled for debate on the legislation. At noon, the Senate will conduct a rollcall vote on the motion to concur in the House message, with a 60-vote threshold. ____________________

More from Harry Reid

But the purpose of politics that Harry Reid understood very well is to get stuff done.
The portraits of Senator Harry Reid and Senator Ted Stevens are the first additions to the leadership series since 2011.
Get rid of the filibuster. It`s nothing. As Barack Obama said at John Lewis` funeral, it`s part of the leftovers from the days of slave owners. You have got to get rid of it. It`s very bad.
