Designated Survivor
"as the Chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee,"
Designated Survivor
"I will be re-introducing Bill 8180"
Designated Survivor
"Now, I happen to oppose this bill,"
Designated Survivor
"but in the spirit of bipartisan discussion,"
Designated Survivor
"I'd like to put it before the Senate for debate."
Designated Survivor
"Do you believe this guy?"
Designated Survivor
"Son of a bitch."
Designated Survivor
"We can't introduce our own bill now."
Designated Survivor

"But if you do support it, you're opening yourself up"
Designated Survivor
"to all sorts of criticism because of its flawed wording."
Designated Survivor
"Son of a bitch is trying to back us into a corner."
