I am here to debate strongly against voting for cloture. Cloture is a very serious procedure. That limits a Senator's ability to offer amendments. Are we going to deny them the opportunity to offer an amendment they have worked hard on and which every colleague in this body knows they are entitled to offer? I am amazed at how quickly people draw their gun of cloture to deny Senators on both sides the opportunity to offer amendments.
Opposing the use of cloture to limit debate and amendments in the Senate.

I do not defend 199, period. I think Congress--when you are rewriting the tax code, you should have a uniform corporate rate, not a lower rate for manufacturing.
