reserving the right to object, the Republican leader has offered virtually nothing. He keeps the same risky process in place. He is totally doing a 180-degree turn from what he has offered time and again. The Democrats vote yes without any Republican help, but he refuses to do that. He refuses to do that. Our proposal is fair. Our proposal is not risky, the way the Republican leader's is, and his doesn't change a darned thing. Therefore, I object. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection to the original request? Mr. McCONNELL. I object. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. The Senator from Washington.
