Mr. President, if there is no further business to come before the Senate, I ask that it stand adjourned under the previous order. There being no objection, the Senate, at 3:23 p.m., adjourned until Monday, May 5, 2025, at 3 p.m.
I am glad to see this pass as part of the Senate’s One Big Beautiful Bill and look forward to welcoming Discovery to Houston and righting this egregious wrong.
This is a once in a generation opportunity to get our fiscal house in better shape.
