I want everyone to know, who has any interest in this
piece of legislation on the floor today,
that this is the time to come and debate it to their heart’s content.
If they want to debate it late tonight, we’re here to do it late tonight.
If they want to debate it tomorrow for a period of time, they can do that;
but I am going to – I think this piece of legislation
is about as
weak and senseless as anything that has ever come on this Senate floor.
And I am not going to waste the Senate’s time
day after day on this piece of legislation which I think
is an anathema to what our country is all about.
So everyone understand, we are going to have a vote tomorrow
I’m not going to wait until Saturday.
We’re going to have a vote tomorrow.
And I feel confident that this
legislation will be disposed of one way or the other.
The American people should understand
that this is a bad piece of legislation.
Perhaps,
some of the worst legislation in the history of this country.
