John Thune: “I have promised to hold a vote in December on a plan to extend the Obamacare subsidies that help millions of Americans…”

There's been enough uncertainty this last year, and, you know, unfortunately, I think through two government shutdowns that extended for a long period of time, it's better for everybody if there's predictability, certainty.

There's clearly an interest among certain members of our conference for a higher level of military and defense.

I’m a realist. But I feel good about where things stand.

I mean I can't defend anything that guy says or does.
