Ron Johnson: “Reserving my right to object, I may not object to this request. It certainly is not addressing the primary problem…”

On the recordJune 28, 2011
Reserving my right to object, I may not object to this request. It certainly is not addressing the primary problem facing our Nation; that is, the fact that we are bankrupting this Nation. We need to start actually addressing that in the Senate. But I realize the managers worked hard on this bill. I realize there are some good amendments the Senate really needs to debate and we should vote on. That is the way the Senate should work. I also ask that I be allowed to speak for 10 minutes following the agreement here.
