Mr. McCAIN. Mr. President, we are going to move forward to the Cordray nomination, which has been held up for some period of time. I would like to thank everybody on both sides of the aisle who was engaged in this debate and discussion. I would particularly like to thank all of my colleagues who engaged in a long but productive discussion last night--which is our custom--of the many issues that separate us, particularly some pending, what many of us believe to be a crisis in the history of the Senate.

I wish to thank both our leaders, Senator McConnell and Senator Reid, and so many others who have been actively engaged in conversations that have been going on. I look forward to a vote as soon as possible on Mr. Cordray.

I thank all of my colleagues for believing what I thought was very important in our relations with the Senate.

I yield the floor.
