reserving the right to object. It is really time to move on and hear from other colleagues about the incredible, outstanding qualifications of President Trump's nominee to the Supreme Court of the United States, Judge Amy Coney Barrett…

Reserving the right to object. The Senate is currently considering the qualifications of an excellent nominee to be on the Supreme Court of the United States. That is why we are here. It is very important work. This request is nothing more…

reserving the right to object. Again, if the minority was serious about passing legislation, they would not have voted four times to adjourn until after the election, so it is a little hard to take this seriously, but it is especially…

I rise today in support of the nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to be an Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Before I begin, I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge the reason for this vacancy. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg…

``Farmer,'' ``fiercely independent,'' ``fiscal hawk''-- all of the good things the Presiding Officer said about him--they describe a part of Senator Mark Andrews, but to me, he is still a giant. At his funeral, the Gospel text that was…

I rise today to honor former U.S. Senator from North Dakota, Mark Andrews, who passed away earlier this month at the age of 94. Mark was a good friend, a strong leader, and a dedicated public servant. It is appropriate that we take this…

Thank you, Mr. President, for the recognition, and thank you also for your excellent tribute to Senator Mark Andrews and his amazing life of service to North Dakota and to our country. Also, thank you for switching places with me for a few…

there is bipartisan agreement that there are serious competition concerns in digital marketplaces.

I appreciate Senator Cardin's commitment to work together. We are all committed to that as well. I do struggle a little bit when the reasons to oppose something are all of the things that aren't in it. Sure, there is not support for State…

6 months ago, our Nation's small businesses faced an existential crisis and unprecedented threat. Like the rest of us, they didn't truly know what this virus was, how hard it would hit us, how long it would last, or what the future would…

I would like to thank the Senator from Arkansas again for his diligence and hard work, and our Ag chairman. I just want to wrap up with some thank-yous, as well, and it starts with our Ag chairman, not only for his leadership on the farm…
