I'll defer to the chairman on that.
We were just made aware of that appointment this morning.
Obviously, it's something that if the administration decides to pursue a permanent appointment to that position, have to come to the Congress and have confirmation hearings.
and ultimately a vote here in the Senate.
But Senator Cotton, you want to speak to that?
This has been a very long road, quite literally the longest shutdown in history.
I am very, very happy to be able to say that we are coming to the end.
So are they making plans to end the shutdown and reopen the government?
Nope.
They're going to propose a bill to fund food stamps during their shutdown.
Mr. President, this request is a transparent admission.
The Democrats want to keep the shutdown for what?
Another month?
Longer?
This bill is a cynical attempt to provide political cover for Democrats to allow them to carry on their government shutdown for the long term.
I digress.
Let's play it right now.
But there are reasonable Democrats out there who are having conversations with Republicans.
And I'm hopeful those are going to yield some results.
I mean, at the end of the day, all these things that they want to do and that we're talking about, we're happy to have a conversation about.
