BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, the Democratic leader, who has been leading a partisan filibuster of anti-Zika funding for over a week, said this about anti-Zika funding yesterday:

There's no excuse for inaction and partisanship. We can't afford to waste another day, a week, another month.

Maybe Democrats are finally ready to end their partisan attack on women's health. I certainly hope so, and, as I have said many times, they will have that opportunity soon.
