“we had expected the Cornyn amendment to take 2 hours, which was the time agreement. Time was yielded back. Senator Vitter has now come to the floor. We are unable to proceed with the amendment in regular form, but I do think it would be appropriate to have Senator Vitter discuss his amendment, which could abbreviate the time which we would need when he lays it down. So, if I may, I would like to yield the floor to the Senator from Louisiana for purposes of having him discuss his amendment. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Louisiana is recognized. Amendment No. 3964”
