Senate Republicans have PASSED Florida Sen. Rick Scott’s motion to STAY in DC through lame duck, work hard and get things done — including Trump’s NOMINEES
This comes after Florida Sen. ASHLEY MOODY personally went on the floor earlier today to say, GET EVERYTHING DONE
Time to work!
SCOTT: “I made a motion for the conference to agree to stay in Washington to get things done. The conference unanimously agreed to my motion and committed to maximize our time in Washington to get our agenda done.”
“I am going to fight to keep the Senate in session, working every single day until we confirm every nominee, every judge, and pass critical Republican bills to support jobs, lower prices, secure our elections, and hold Washington accountable.”
THANK YOU

@SenRickScott
, Florida once again! ??
Republicans hold the Senate majority until January 3. Every judge and nominee confirmed now is one Democrats can’t block next year
No vacations. No excuses.
This appears to pertain to “the conference”.
I’m frankly not sure what this means.
Doesn’t sound like one of the committees.
I bet it doesn’t include Collins, Tillis, Cornyn, Murk or McConnell.
I have to assume anything the conference does has to be passed by the full Senate in due time.
THE CONFERENCE IS THE REPUBLICAN SENATE CONFERENCE…IE ALL THE RED SENATORS
In that quote,”the conference” refers to the Senate Republican Conference, which is the caucus of all Republican senators. It is essentially the internal organization through which Senate Republicans meet, discuss strategy, elect their leaders, and decide on legislative priorities
