as has been mentioned repeatedly regarding the 10-day CMS hold, this 10-day CMS hold period will expire tonight. Doctors who serve our seniors will be facing a 21-percent cut. Senator Murray's bill costs $21.1 billion over 10 years, and it is not offset. Therefore, the pending amendment, No. 1117, offered by Senator Murray, would violate the Senate pay-go rule and increase the on-budget deficit over the 10-year period of fiscal years 2015 to 2024. Therefore, I raise a point of order against this measure pursuant to section 201(a) of S. Con. Res. 21, the concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2008. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Washington.
