Now, Mr. President, let's be clear on what this bill is and what it is not. It is a stopgap measure which is known as a continuing resolution or often called a cr. It is straightforward. It continues current funding levels for government until November 21st. That gives Congress the time that we need to continue our work on the annual appropriations bills. It is not a year long cr. Republicans do not want a year long cr. (00:35–00:43)
