I ask unanimous consent that the time for business be extended until 12:45. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. Foreign Travel

We have a requirement, as you may know, for 60 Senators to be in agreement before a bill is taken up, and some people--we were two votes short.
We are trying to make sure that we have maximum impact in the places that could use the money the most.
the reason we serve is to ensure our children and our children's children inherit the same great country that we received from those who went before us.
