The last point I will make. Maybe the most important discussion we should have is ending and overturning this disastrous Citizens United Supreme Court decision which gives the billionaires in this country the ability to control what goes on here in the Congress, forcing Members of the House and Senate to raise unbelievable sums of money. So there is a lot to be debated. But one thing we should not be debating is shutting down the United States Government in order to achieve a narrow political goal. With that, I yield the floor. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator from Alabama.
