And it sounds like a partisan blame game, but this is quite literally what's happened. You can look at the voting record I suggested today after the vote. We had to blow up the tally sheet on the vote this afternoon and put it in every airport terminal around America to show them Democrats voted no. Every Republican voted yes. We've done it three times in the House. They've tried to do it in the Senate, but Chuck Schumer is holding that up. The frustration is real. (03:10–03:18)
