We are in a little bit of uncertainty with the coronavirus obviously in China and spreading to other parts of the world, a little bit here in the U.S.

very likely to vote to call witnesses.

My family tree on both sides is full of prominent women who served in elected office. The most notable of these is my wife's great-grandmother, Dr. Martha Hughes Cannon, a pioneer in both government and heritage. 123 years ago, she was…

Late last week, President Trump ordered the assassination of a high-ranking Iranian official while he was in Iraq. This action threatens to cascade the United States into an ill- advised, not authorized war with Iran, and is already…

Today marks a sobering anniversary. Three years ago today, Scarlett Lillian Pauley, a magnetic, vibrant, 16- month- old died suddenly and unexpectedly. She was born at 11:25 a.m. on August 31, 2015, a happy and healthy 6-pound, 4-ounce…

This, however, is not the biggest problem I have with the briefing. Which I would add was probably the worst briefing I've seen, at least on a military issue, in the nine years I've served in the United States Senate.

I had hoped and expected to receive more information outlining the legal, factual, and moral justification for the attack. I was left somewhat unsatisfied on that front.

The facts are uncontestable. The evidence is overwhelming. The President grossly misused the Office of President and obstructed Congress, and justice requires this impeachment. I feel compelled to respond to the false narrative that…

I discovered something recently. It is shocking, I know, but it turns out that some people don't like President Trump. They think he is loud, they think he can be arrogant, they think sometimes he says bad words, and sometimes he is rude…

Had I been present, I would have voted ``nay'' on rollcall No. 689. ____________________

I rise today to honor the extraordinary service of one of Utah's most dedicated county commissioners, Mr. Newell Harward. He has served Wayne County for the past 7 years, but he has taken on responsibility well beyond that, advocating for…

I am just so thrilled and excited to be reintroducing my Social Security reform bill, the Social Security Enhancement and Protection Act of 2019. Today, our prized Social Security program is at risk. Currently, Social Security is fully…

I am thankful to the bipartisan co-leads of this legislation: Representative Chris Stewart, Lois Frankel, Mario Diaz-Balart, and Chrissy Houlahan.

This is one of those elements which, once again, the gentlewoman raises an issue that I think is right, it is good, and it is appropriate; and the idea that we should make sure these considerations take effect is an appropriate thing. The…

Again, I claim the time in opposition. The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman is recognized for 5 minutes.

I actually don't have great pleasure in doing that because Mr. Brown is a vital member of our committee, does a great job, and defends his State brilliantly. I appreciate him doing that. But, once again, the process we are doing is adding…

We, once again, are in the same situation. This is not a bad idea, and it is not a bad concept. In fact, it is such a good concept, we are already doing it. So, if I quote NOAA in their testimony in our committee, the agency currently…

This adds a finding to it. It doesn't have any cost. This is not a duplicative program because it is a finding, so I support this amendment. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the…
