How are you getting any closer to getting your up upset you stopped for one morning. 3 00:00:13,630 –> 00:00:15,960 We don’t want to take you were communicating and negotiate. 4 00:00:16,010 –> 00:00:21,480 >> OK. That’s what it’s all about. That’s what the process is about and we’re having good conversations we’re talking and 5 00:00:21,480 –> 00:00:27,270 everybody and all the players and everybody understand each other’s position. And the 6 00:00:27,270 –> 00:00:32,750 talks are very very good. That’s all I can tell you. Are you getting deeper talking actually about tax. Policy. 7 00:00:32,750 –> 00:00:33,010 Oh yeah. 8 00:00:33,040 –> 00:00:38,940 >> What’s actually going on.

I truly believe I’ll say this to all of you I truly believe 11 00:00:48,330 –> 00:00:53,430 .

Let’s get that piece of legislation agreed 14 00:01:01,170 –> 00:01:06,450 upon that we can start working the framework of that and putting it together that’s going to take a little while. But with that 15 00:01:06,450 –> 00:01:12,660 being said we have the trust of each other then we should be able to vote immediately on the bipartisan infrastructure bill which 16 00:01:12,660 –> 00:01:16,250 is a tremendous piece of legislation for the president to take with him to Moscow. 17 00:01:16,470 –> 00:01:21,750 >> And also knowing in good faith that we have an outline of how we’re going to working out the details of all the fine print. That’s where 18 00:01:21,750 –> 00:01:24,440 I would like to hope to be. So we have to see if we can get there. 19 00:01:24,540 –> 00:01:30,270 >> Looks it be done by October 30. We’re not.
