farmers already deal with so much uncertainty from prices. They should not have to deal with the uncertainty that our government won't follow through on its contracts. Farmers who apply for grant programs are awarded funding on their…

I confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that have given lane to this demagogue.

Democrats can’t afford to coast. If officials want to hold on to their seats, they need to think creatively and do everything in their power to fight Trump’s agenda — or step aside for someone who will.

I would like to call up my amendment No. 1441 and ask unanimous consent to speak for up to 25 hours. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Permission denied.

OK. I just ask that it be reported by number. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report. The legislative clerk read as follows: The Senator from New Jersey [Mr. Booker] proposes an amendment numbered 1441 to amendment No. 1717. The…

Out of the kindness and generosity of my colleague there, instead of asking for a rollcall vote, I ask for a voice vote. Vote on Amendment No. 1441 The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is on adoption of the amendment. The amendment is not…

In recent weeks, the Trump administration and House Republicans have set their sights on the Federal judiciary, calling for unprecedented changes to our courts, attacking the character of dedicated Federal judges, and attempting to…

There is so much heartbreak in this country now.

I’m not here because of his speech. I’m here in spite of his speech. I’m here because as powerful as he was, the people were more powerful.

Heck no, not to you. Not to you. Not to you. Let me tell you, I have something to get off of my chest about you. I woke up yesterday morning, and the first thing I did--now, this shirt is all wrinkled and a little ripe. But the first thing…

Thank you to the Presiding Officer and my friend whom I am keeping up at 3 a.m. He is a kind and generous man to be here. Here is a closure of Social Security offices, 47 closures across the country in red States and blue States…

I will answer your question. But knowing that my mom is watching right now, before I answer the question, I want to tell the folks who may not know about the relationship with my other Senator from New Jersey--it is probably one of the…

I will give a short answer to your question, then, which is the irony--the irony that this President is remaining quiet about folks that are violating international law in many ways. So I think it is absurd, and you are right. It is…

I hope that the colleague of mine who, again, has been a mentor, a friend on all they things foreign policy, my belief is that he is referring to when General Mattis sat before the United States Senate and said very pointedly: If you cut…

It is a great book. I actually learned--I read my colleague's book, and I learned a lot of data about gun violence from your book. We were talking about this belief that these words--this belief in our country that these words, why this…
