senate democrats, who spent weeks talking about funding the government, refused to allow the senate to even debate a bill that would fund military construction, protect our homeland and keep the promises that we made to our veterans. now, mr. president, i might be able to understand democrats' position if they had been shut out of the process on this legislation, but they weren't. the military construction and veterans affairs appropriations bill was debated in the appropriations committee where members of both parties were given an opportunity to offer amendments and to help shape the bill's contents. the bill passed out of the committee with an overwhelming bipartisan majority. and if democrats had allowed the bill to reach the floor, they would have had yet another opportunity to debate and amend the legislation. but the senate democrats wouldn't even let the bill come to the floor to be debated. they blocked the motion to proceed to the bill that would even allow us and allow them an opportunity to be heard, an opportunity to offer amendments. now, mr. president, some democrats hav

need to get back to regular order and that means the senate needs to bring up and debate each of these 12 bills individually. however, due to democratic obstructionism, the federal government is operating under a short-term funding measure and the senate has not been able to debate any of these 12 funding bills. mr. president, it's time for the political posturing to stop. people back home don't understand. i don't either. senate democrats are again acting as a roadblock and preventing progress. the american people sent us up here to govern responsibly and it's time for senate democrats to start living up to this expectation particularly when it comes to funding our government. this vote today senate democrats are blocking us from moving forward with a bill to fund military construction projects that help our troops and support key veterans' programs many of which need reform after being plagued by backlogs and scandals for years. we must make good on our nation's promise to our veterans and provide our troops with the facilities they need to work, train and fulfill the mission of the united states armed forces. senate democrats just

on the third vote in the senate this year, after the change of control, that is, most of the democrats -- including some of the loudest critics of the filibuster -- voted against cloture on a motion to proceed, which until that point they claimed to be an egregious and inappropriate abuse of senate rules. i know that there are some senate democrats who still say they are opposed to the filibuster, even in principle, although apparently not in prosecute. -- not in practice. it's no good saying something like this -- stop me before i filibuster again. if you think it's wrong, don't do it. it's as simple as that. when senator wyden and i began to work on ending the practice of secret holds, we pledged to disclose any hold that we placed -- that we placed on a bill in the "congressional record" and we did that for years before we finally got rules changed so that every member has to do that. the senate democrats have shown through their actions that they now fully support the senate filibuster. i guarantee that the next time republicans are in the minority, we, too, will see the necessity

senate democrats he spent weeks talking about funding the government refused to allow the senate even debated bill that would fund military construction, protect our homeland and keep the promises we have made to our veterans. shut up the process of his legislation. the veterans affairs appropriations bills debated in the appropriations committee for members of both parties given an opportunity to offer amendments in the help save the contents. the bill passed out of committee the democrats had allowed theallow the bill teresa floor. they would have another opportunity. they would not even let the bill come to the floor to be debated. they block the motion to proceed to the bill that would allow us and them an opportunity to be heard and offer amendments. the bicameral agreement that authorizes funding. and like the bill democrats block last week this legislation which is the product of the bipartisan committee process and received bipartisan support coming out of the committee. more than that, it received strong bipartisan support on the floor when i 1st came it 1st came up for consi

senate seats in 2016. all three of the democratic senators from these states, from north dakota, missouri, and west virginia, they will probably all be able to hold on to their seats when they run. but the democratic party was worried in those three states if they had to put a new democrat in there, if they had to run a new democrat for the seat because it was an open seat, they might have a hard time getting any other democrat elected. in the event that claire mccaskill in missouri or joe manchin in west virginia or jodi highcamp decided to step down or run for some other office, the democrats were very worried about those seats. now that they've all decided to stay on and run to stay in the senate, run as incumbents for re-election, that is as big a coup for the democratic party as their other successful recruitment in the other states. so it may or may not work out well for the democrats in all of these states. but the democrats have gotten everything they want to set up next year's election in all of these states. and this never happens in terms of the democratic party's strategic best guess and them ge

let's talk about this bill that the senate democrats voted down. you have a five-year minimum of those who are illegal after committing two aggravated felony crimes or if there two reentries. what's wrong with that? >> i certainly don't object to the policies, but you know the reality is that if nobody can prosecute an illegal alien up to deportation, if they can't get custody to begin with, they keep releasing them back to the streets. we need to find a way to better deter them from coming back here. >> how do we do that? >> i think the government needs to crack down and keep them from doing it. they can give immunity to the 90% of sheriffs and police chiefs who are complying with federal law and happy to do it. they know of the public safety benefits. >> clearly. >> i want to talk to you about a congressman in texas. his name is castro. he he is introducing a bill to ban the term illegal aliens. he wants to call them undocumented foreign nationals. are we crazy? jnt there a first amendment in this country? >> they never apply and they have plenty

and if so, why did you choose to run as a democrat? senator webb: i ran as a democrat for the same reason i ran as a democrat when i ran for the senate and that is if you look at the history of the democratic party, it is the party that has given the people who have no voice in the corridors of power, a voice. .hat is the reason that i ran i have also said for a number of years that the democratic party needs to get back to its more traditional message and not seeing that in the way that i wish that i could see it. and so -- in terms of it being rigid -- the debate -- the point i made in the debate was, when you come to a debate, where you are supposed to have an equal opportunity to present your issues and you get 14 minutes when the leading candidate gets 32 minutes and the way the questions were being asked were designed to do that, then i wouldn't say that was a fair process. reporter: over the course -- i want to talk about the idea of the democratic party being too extreme at the high levels. over the course of the campaign you struggled

well, democrats are saying they're going to put a block or hold on any other senate business until theseget a vote on the floor. republicans will surely beat them. it's unclear how this would be able to break the filibuster needed in the republican is that the. but the democratic strategy is to put this issue at the front and center of the nation's conscience, but also to put red -- blue-state republicans on notice. what do i mean by that? you have upcoming races in 2016 in illinois, wisconsin, pennsylvania, and the idea politically, at least, is that we can put these vulnerable members in a difficult spot because this is really appealing to the mom vote. but in terms of is this doing anything? it won't. even if they were to get through the is that the, the republican-led house will squash them because there is not a single conservative who wants to take a vote on this, tamron. i'll also throw in this. if you sort of see the trajectory of this issue going back to 2013, i remember we spoke about it on the air, if 20 kids in newtown dying couldn't get any congressional action, what happene
