So sad commentary on the leadership of the Democratic Party in the United States Senate and a sad commentary on the Senate itself that we're in this situation. With that, I look forward to visiting with you soon. Next week The House is out, although we're prepared to come back. We're on what's called 48 hour notice. If there's an agreement, we will come back and fully fund Department of Homeland Security, the last piece of the government. If not, we'll continue to work through it. (14:13–14:20)
