Vice President Pence now demanding answers as to why he was misled about Michael Flynn's calls with the Russian ambassador

At the same time that those workers were let go, the CEO made over $10 million; the previous CEO before him, when he left--and it was about 2 years before--on his last day received a payoff of over $150 million.

Do not do what is always easy; just do what is right.

Madam Chair, when we look at some of the things that have caused damage over the years--you were here at a time about a day or two after the Carrier layoffs occurred, if you remember that.
