that is my hope. One of the reasons we want to dispose of the second-degree amendment--Senator Enzi, who has worked with you and others on the underlying amendment, is going to move to table. We hope we can move to the Edwards amendment. The Senator from Texas, Mr. Gramm, has told us he wants to study this tonight and he will give us word on it tomorrow. I think it has been debated quite sufficiently. It appears to me the Edwards amendment is reasonable. I think in the dialog he answered all the questions of the Senator from Texas. I have no problem if the Senator wants to spend the night looking it over more.

The filibuster is nondemocratic. It has been used to the disarray of the Congress. And, certainly, it hasn’t been anything that has helped -- been helpful to the American people. It’s got to go.
Well, I think Joe Biden has done what needs to be done in this country. We are so far behind and roads, bridges, dams, water systems, sewer systems. And every dollar we spend on getting infrastructure is a correction toward cleaner America.
Get rid of the filibuster, is nothing that as Brock Obama said, at John Lewis` funeral, it’s part of the leftovers from the days of the slave owners. You got to get rid of it. It’s very, very bad.
