Published | Video Starts at 00:29

And of course, the question now is what comes next? And I think, at least here in the Senate, we have a lot of things, as you know, we have to get done. The Defense Authorization bill, which has passed the Senate, is now being conferenced with the House. When that conference is complete, we want to get that across the floor of the Senate. We have another nominations package we need to clear before the end of the year, and of course we want to get the appropriations process moving again. (00:29–00:35)
