Now, there's enough work for an individual senator to do seven days a week if he wants to, but you're never going to solve this country's problems just working two and a half days a week like we did under Schumer. Now under Thune, we gotta get this back on a five day work week, Monday through Friday, like it was the first 25 years I served in the United States Senate. We start at 10 on Monday and go to 4 on Friday. And then you don't have to have all of these meetings coming on a Thursday afternoon or a Thursday morning because you got more days to do it.
