SEN. ROCKEFELLER: (Sounds gavel.) This hearing will come to order. I should point out that we have a vote on our new nominee for the Supreme Court at 3:00, which absolutely messes all of your schedules up but we'll make it work.
What I'm going to do, and I'll suggest to the ranking member when she comes, that we forgo our opening statements, which I try to set the scene, and go directly to you so that you don't feel left out in the cold while we're speaking and you're sitting and then we leave, and wondering if you'll ever see us again. You will. We'll go down to vote -- and we have to vote from our seats because it's a very formal type vote.
And so I would start out with you, sir, Mr. Longhi.
MR. LONGHI: Thank...
