My point is this: Keep the pressure on us today. Do not let us
walk away from here now without keeping government open, but do not let
us leave the Senate and the Congress until we have resolved the issues
in front of us. Those issues include healthcare, immigration, funding
for national defense, domestic spending, and issues related to
disaster--the Senator who presides today is from Florida--whether or
not we do disaster assistance, which is a need as a result of the
hurricanes that have caused tremendous damage in Texas and Florida and
Puerto Rico. If we need that disaster relief--if it is needed--it is
needed now, not later. I have raised this topic.
