I just forced a vote to adjourn the Senate until after the November election.
But the Senate Republicans voted to ignore—to laugh at—the wishes of the American people.
We won't stop fighting.

It is an insult to the American people that the GOP is ramming through a Supreme Court justice with just eight days until the end of an election in which nearly 60 million people have already voted.

We are not going to have business as usual here in the Senate while the Republicans try to use an illegitimate process to jam through a Supreme Court nominee.
