William H. Frist said "tonight it has taken a long time to get where we are. We are going to have 10-minute rollcall votes, so everybody needs to stay in the Chamber. We are going to cut everybody off. We have agreed to 10 minutes. It has been a long day already. We know what we are going to be doing the rest of the night. We have the amendments laid out, but it means everybody has to stay here. It will be 10-minute votes. Everybody stay here. Second, we have a request from the other side of the aisle that after this series of amendments there be a rollcall vote on the extension of the PATRIOT Act. We will run through the series of amendments as outlined and then, in discussion with the other side of the aisle, they are requesting a rollcall vote on the extension of the PATRIOT Act following these stacked votes on the amendments. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Montana." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
