Examples of unanimous consent in a Sentence

Last night, you may have seen Senator McConnell try to Rule-14 18 gotcha amendments. He was trying to say, ‘See, Democrats, you're not going to like 50 votes,' i challenged him and asked unanimous consent that we have 50 votes on those 18 plus the voting rights Act, the Freedom to Vote Act, and the John Lewis Act. And of course, he objected. So we're not afraid of 50 votes. We want 50 votes. And McConnell's gotcha activity didn't quite work.
I won't give UC( unanimous consent) to an amendment package that doesn't include my amendment. That's my view of it, now, going back to the broader issue, everyone here is in favor of this bill, and everyone here is against slave labor of Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang, and the only impediment is some House rule because this theoretically raises revenue which it doesn't, then they should just pass the House version of the bill and send it here.
And now there is a unanimous consent request to pass a bill that’s under negotiation, discussion between serious legislators who actually want to find results, so, no, I’m not going to debate the merits of these [unanimous consent requests], this isn’t real.
