I am grateful for the work done yesterday and during the entire process of working toward an agreement on the important Iran legislation. Senators Corker and Cardin have done a magnificent job. They are both good managers. I would suggest everyone who is concerned about amendments should come and talk to the two managers before they lay down their amendments. There is a process for moving amendments forward. It has been very well articulated by both Senator Cardin and Senator Corker, so we know what rules we can move under today. We know there are difficult issues with this bill--and those are some of the things we do here, work on difficult issues--not always but some of the time. ____________________

The country is better off having a real democracy, not a fake democracy. Sixty percent is not a democracy.
