I thank the Senator so very much. His insight is correct. I will wrap up and say that what happened today is very significant, and it is a sad day. It represents the greatest alteration of the rules without proper procedure that we have probably seen in the history of the Republic. It erodes legitimate minority rights in a way that subjects every right a minority party has in the Senate and the right any individual Senator has in the Senate. It places that right at great risk. A majority can do that at any time. That was explained so eloquently by Senator Roberts a few moments ago. I was so impressed with his analysis. We will wrestle through this and work at it. I know that Senator Alexander has worked hard in every way possible to avoid this day.

The PRESIDING OFFICER (Ms. Heitkamp). The Senator from Tennessee.
