I ask general business notice of motion No. 878, standing in my name today relating to the policy of US President Trump to forcibly separate families of people seeking asylum in the US be taken as a formal motion.

Is there any objection to the motion being taken as formal?

Yes.

I am sorry, Senator McKim, that has been denied.
