Agreed. The Senator from Missouri is exactly correct. If we voted, it would move the process of both funding the government-- very important--and getting middle-class tax relief--also very important--forward. Mrs. McCASKILL. Well, I would certainly urge every single Senator, be they Democrat or Republican, to come to the floor and ask the question: Why are we not voting today on the bill that was passed by the House? We are ready to vote. You know, the American people do not get this game. The bill was passed in the House. Why are we not voting? Why is the Republican Party blocking its own bill?
