Despite this fiscal hocus-pocus, this fakery, this trickery which my colleague has alluded to, when they cut Medicaid, when they cut Social Security, when they cut Medicare, those cuts remain just as devastating--is that accurate?--no…

Isn't it true, when McCain talked about waste in the military, he studied it; he documented it; he said this is a good thing; this is a bad thing? He helped guide me on many of these things. I voted for some weapons systems, getting some…

Thank you. I first want to thank my colleague for taking the floor and showing the American people how horrible this administration is treating average families--working families--in so many ways, and I know he intends to hold the floor…

Share something personal with us. You are taking the floor tonight to bring up all these inequities that will hurt people-- that will so hurt the middle class, that will so hurt poor people--that will hurt America, that will hurt our…

Mr. President, this week, Donald Trump is preparing to take a sledgehammer to the American economy by preparing a tsunami of tariffs on all sorts of goods Americans purchase every day--a tsunami of tariffs. Let's be clear. Donald Trump's…

So, just today, I visited a nursing home on Staten Island and a nursing home on Long Island--both in Republican congressional districts--and I spoke to people there. At the nursing home I visited, if Medicaid were cut significantly, the…

From what I understand--and tell me if this is correct-- if they did this tricky thing that even our Republican colleagues are calling fakery and hocus-pocus, our conservative Republican colleagues, it might increase the deficit by $30…

I hate to bring the Senator bad news, but I am asking him a question, and I needed his answer given how eloquent he has been about what America should be and what America should not be. So I yield the floor to the Senator.

So I thank my colleague for his strength, his courage, and his effectiveness in letting the American people know how badly this upcoming bill will affect them if our Republican colleagues insist on passing it. Finally, I yield the floor…

I thank my good friend and colleague, Monica De La Cruz, for joining me in this effort. I also thank my colleagues on the other side of the aisle who have cosponsored our legislation, H.R. 1329. Today, we conclude Women's History Month. It…

I thank the distinguished chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, my good friend, Adriano Espaillat, for his leadership and for convening us on the floor today in honor of an iconic, heroic, and trailblazing Member of Congress, Raul…

Thank you, Senator Booker. So the other thing that stressed out my constituents that I talked about this weekend is air safety. They are very, very stressed out about these cuts to the FAA. You know, there was a plane crash not too far…

I have another question before you start your letters, Senator Booker, if you will take another question, if you will yield.

I thank the chairman and the Ways and Means Committee staff for working with me on this legislation to combat mail theft and fraud. A few months ago, I raised the issue of stolen checks to the Ways and Means Committee after my office had…

Seven thousand staff, even though the Social Security Administration staffing is already at a 50-year low. So they are lying when they are saying this is about efficiency. They just want the money, and what do they want the money for? Tax…

Does the Senator remember that, when this was done in the past, McConnell said they would regret it, and they will regret it sooner than they think? Does the Senator agree that that applies to the Republicans in that they will regret it…

Senator Booker, I have been listening to this debate all night, and I have got to say, you are on fire. And you are on fire because the American people are very, very angry about what is happening. They are not happy with what this…

First, let me say before I ask my question, Go Bills. Second, given the 15 hours which you have shown such amazing strength of an all-American athlete who could probably, given what you have shown tonight, be a star on our Giants--so I…
