Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate consider the following nominations: all nominations placed on the Secretary's desk in the Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, Navy, and Space Force; that the nominations be confirmed en…

In reviewing this censure measure, I am reminded of Will Rogers' quip: ``I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts.'' This month, despite the pressing needs of the American people, we have spent a week and a half…

In closing, I emphasize this bicameral, bipartisan legislation affirms Congress' constitutional authority on trade and will not only support Taiwan's democracy but strengthen our bilateral trade relations. I thank my colleagues, both…
