it’s irresponsible for @senschumer to leave floor consideration of the ndaa to the last minute. as the maj. leader, senator schumer has all the power to bring this bill up. consideration of ndaa should be the senate’s top priority before breaking for the veterans day work period.  qt @mkraju some news for folks watching ndaa: jack reed, chairman of senate armed services, told me he expects the annual defense authorization bill on senate floor before thanksgiving. it’s fallen behind the schedule
