Well, I just want to ask you about the debate that's underway with regard to homeland security then, Senator.

I hear the position you're coming from.

So I'm guessing that a lot of these are non-starters for you.

We talked to your colleague John Cornyn yesterday.

He said the request to de-mask ICE agents was insulting to their professionalism.

Is that something that you would consider if it meant funding homeland security and bringing down the temperature?

Well, I just wonder what you think of the president's comment then, Senator.

What does he mean by softer touch?

Senator, I'd like to ask you about an important hearing that you held today with regard to autonomous driving and a piece of legislation that you're pursuing to do away with the patchwork of rules on the state level and actually come up with a national framework.

We heard from Mauricio Pena, an executive at Waymo, the Alphabet-owned autonomous driving company.

Here's what we heard.

Were you compelled by the presentations today from Waymo and from Tesla, Senator?

Would you get into a self-driving car tonight?

Senator, I just have to ask you quickly, I'm getting the hook here, but can you tell us about the Rotor Act following the collision outside of DCA?

We understand that you've received a promise to get a vote on the House floor.

Before we say goodnight, is that going to happen?

Let us know when you get a timeline on that, Senator.

Thank you for joining us.
