“Reserving the right to object, I ask unanimous consent that the Senator modify her request so that it not be in order for the Senate to consider a conference report that includes reconciliation instructions to raise the debt limit. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Will the Senator so modify her request? Mrs. McCASKILL. Could I inquire of the Senator?
