Does the democratic leader, Hakeem Jeffries, support what you're doing? You know, they currently are pushing for the Senate bill. Obviously, they have a discharge petition. What I would say is that Discharge petition doesn’t have any republican support. What we have now is a bill with a discharge petition that is led by a Republican. This is just the procedural way to bypass leadership to get a vote, correct? (04:19–04:24)
