Thank you very much.

We all know how important water is to the vitality of any community--especially for rural communities in the dry desert climates of the West.

I would want to make sure that I express my appreciation for me and my constituents in Utah for the great relationship that we have with the United Kingdom.

These recovery programs ensure that people in our rural communities continue to have access to critical water sources for everything from irrigation to recreation.

If confirmed, I look forward to working with the Secretary to determine how OSERS can address this issue within the parameters of IDEA.

Roy Moore in the U.S. Senate would be a stain on the GOP and on the nation. Leigh Corfman and other victims are courageous heroes, no vote, no majority is worth losing our honor, our integrity.

The Senator is correct. The intent of the provision is to exclude all amounts paid or accrued for services costs with no markup. Thus amounts paid or accrued in that account would be excluded from the base erosion anti-abuse tax. Other…

with passage of this bill, we are another step closer to providing real tax relief to the middle class and providing a much-needed boost to our economy. Today's events have been years in the making. This has been my chief legislative focus…

I have sat here and listened to Democrats, year after year, talk about how they are so much more committed to the middle class and to the poor, as they have driven us right into bankruptcy. Instead of trying to work on these matters so…

I would like to be able to look at that particular analysis. There are other analyses that indicate that, yes, we can do better in this bill but also would disagree with that one. I don't happen to have my hands on those documents at this…

Let me take the floor back. Nobody believes more in the CHIP program than I. I invented it. I was the one who wrote it. Kennedy came over and became the one who helped put it through.

But to prey upon the CHIP program as though it is the be- all and end-all of everything here in every aspect of this debate is not quite right either. All I can say is that I don't know anyone here who is not going to support CHIP when we…

I don't intend to let that happen. I think that we will get CHIP taken care of and, hopefully, a number of other things, too, but we are going to have to resolve some of these big problems around here, it seems to me, before we do get…

Unfortunately, the liberal philosophy has created millions of people that way, who believe everything that they are or ever hope to be depends upon the Federal Government rather than on the opportunities that this great country grants…

Of course I do. I don't think I do everything on my own here. I have to have good Democratic friends to do it. I don't think you do either. Let me tell you something. We are going to do CHIP. There is no question about it, in my mind. It…

I proudly present the art of the deal: In the tax deal before us, we provide permanent tax cuts for individuals who are multimillionaires and billionaires. With this deal, all middle class families will eventually face a tax increase since…

I have listened to the minority leader's remarks. If anybody believes that we are going to be able to work together closely when they just want a bill for the Federal Government at all costs--they had us right there on the cusp of…

the provisions of NEPA also created, for example, the CEQ, which came up with a sweeping climate change for regulatory guidance.
