What are you expecting to see today? I think there's going to be a pretty strong vote. I don't know whether it will be a bipartisan vote or not. I suspect there will be some Democrats who will vote and that vote will put the bill on the president's desk to reopen government after the longest shutdown in American history. And yes, I cast that vote, which turned out to be a deciding vote. Eight Democratic votes were needed and I was vote eight to reopen government. (01:55–02:06)
