00:00Democrats are going to have the choice to vote for whether you want the cloture or the

00:07final one, and if you refuse or you withhold your vote, you are voting about shutting the

00:15government down.

00:17So that's always been my point.

00:19Now it's a CR that we all agree we don't like, and we don't co-sign on all of those elements,

00:27but for me, it's about we can't ever allow the government to shut down.

00:34If you shut it down, you will impact and heart millions and millions and millions of Americans,

00:39and you run the risk of slipping us into a recession or even all kinds of other things.
