This, from Sen Ernst, is an amazing statement:
“I wish we had given James [Lankford] the benefit of the doubt to take a look at the text before we started speaking our opposition,” Ernst said. “But with that being said, it’s out there now, it’s already influenced the public and so we have to take that into consideration as we move forward.”
In other words: *it's already been attacked by propagandists on TV so we can't support it*
