TRANSCRIPT:
MCCONNELL: "It looks like there may be a bipartisan agreement coming from the House. So I’m fairly confident that most of my members, our members, are going to vote against cloture, not necessarily because they are opposed to the underlying bill, but to see what the House can do on a bipartisan basis, and then bring it over to us. So, under these circumstances, I'm recommending a 'no' vote, even though I very much want to avoid a government shutdown."
