I thank the Senate's majority whip for all of the work he has done. Again, he works for farmers day in and day out. He comes from South Dakota, which is a strong farming and big ranching State. He was instrumental in this effort, not only…

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…

we are here to talk about agriculture. We are here to talk about those great farmers and ranchers who feed this country and feed the world. You know, when we talk about good farm policy, we are talking about something that benefits every…

This bill is a good piece of bipartisan legislation. I agree with Ms. Scanlon; it is an important first step. But I also think it is important to recognize that, when we do place juvenile offenders in the adult criminal justice system, we…

I was in the committee when we did this and when we accepted Republican amendments and garnered some support from people on my side of the aisle in committee. I have no doubt that my friends on the other side of the aisle condemn all kinds…

I do appreciate this bill, and the only question I sometimes have is that it seems like email has been around for a long time, and we are just getting to it, but better later than never. But I also think it is really important to recognize…

But three years later, Trump seems to be doing exactly the opposite of what he promised to do.

Despite repeated administration assurances that our withdrawal from Afghanistan is, quote, conditions based, President Trump has allegedly, and I quote: Repeatedly voiced a desire to leave Afghanistan sooner than the timetable laid out in…

I watched the wrestling video and I hear the stories from a school in Texas or Banana Republic, and I find these things horrible. I don't think you can find any Member in this Chamber who doesn't find racial discrimination to be repugnant…

I would like to thank the good Senator from Nebraska and turn to the Senator from Iowa, who has also been an absolute champion on behalf of agriculture. Thanks so much for being here. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Hoeven). The Senator from…

I would like to thank the Senator from Iowa. Again, she directly brings that experience from the farm, growing up in agriculture. Somebody else who is here represents Mississippi, so you can see we are going from North Dakota to…

I want to thank our Ag chairman. I want to thank him for being here today. I want to thank him for his many, many years of service in this body. And most of all, what I want to thank him for today is his leadership on farm issues, on ag…

again, I thank Senator Hyde-Smith of the State of Mississippi. Not only is she a strong advocate for our farmers and ranchers, but as I say, all of these people you are hearing from this morning have backgrounds in agriculture. They have…

I thank Senator Boozman for his strong leadership on ag. He said it very well and very clearly and very simply. We have heard from more than 40 ag groups from across the country, including from the Presiding Officer's State. The last I…

today, as he is buried in the North Dakota Veterans Cemetery just outside of his hometown of Mandan, ND, I honor the life and patriotism of Navy Fireman 2nd Class Albert Renner. Like so many young men of this ``greatest generation,'' he…
