Political Quotes

“Mr. President, following leader remarks, there will be a period of morning business for 1 hour, with Senators permitted to speak for up to 10 minutes each. The Republicans will control the first 30 minutes and the majority will control the final 30 minutes. Following morning business, we will resume consideration of the small business jobs bill. I will continue to work with the Republican leader today on an agreement to consider amendments to the bill. If we are able to reach an agreement, we will have votes on amendments today. Last night, I filed cloture on the substitute and the underlying bill, two cloture motions. As a result, the filing deadline for germane first-degree amendments is at 1 p.m. today. Senators will be notified when an agreement is reached and votes are scheduled. ____________________”
