Right now, the United States continues to support Saudi Arabia's genocidal war in Yemen. This support has been ongoing since 2015 yet has never been authorized by Congress. It must end now. U.S. support for this war has resulted in dire…

I hope we have the opportunity to address the fact that if a contractor is not performing, if they are underperforming and not meeting their marks, we are not talking about getting a lower percentage of incentives.

And to put this in perspective, if you get on a plane today and fly to Hawaii, that is 5,000 miles; if you get on a plane then and fly from Hawaii to Beijing, that is another 5,000 miles.

it is and has always been Federal law and policy that Indian tribes recognized by the Federal Government stand on an equal footing to each other and to the Federal Government.

most Americans don't wake up every day thinking about the arcane rules of the Senate. They might think the debate we are having today is just another example of a legislative body they see as out of touch on the issues they care about…
