I'm not sure what it is, but Senate.gov says:

Quote:

Wednesday, Jun 26, 2013
9:30 a.m.: Convene and resume consideration of S.744, the Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill.
They're discussing the Corker-Hoeven Amendment again. I don't know how well this is going over with Republicans because they are using facts from the CBO Report to explain why CIR is good.

It sounds like a 'Point of Order' was called on the recently passed Corker-Hoeven amendment.It is basically another stall or delay the legislation vote where 1 Senator[likely Republican] believed that it would not be payed for!

For the folks at work and can't see this you should know that Chuck Grassley doesn't like the fact that our parents get RPI and maintain it if the triggers are not met.

He only got 52 seconds to speak, though. :lol:
