I rise today to state the obvious--to state in clear terms what scientists have been warning us about for decades. The scientific data couldn't be any clearer. Climate change is real. Climate change is here, and we are causing its…

Thank you for the recognition, Madam President. Today I rise to call on this body to defend the Constitution, to protect the separation of powers, and to safeguard Congress's role as a coequal branch of government. Today I am introducing a…

I just want to say, because we have both been here for a bit talking on the floor about this, I want to thank Senator Collins for standing up for principle. I want to thank her for standing up for our Constitution. It is a real honor to…

I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call be rescinded. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. (The remarks of Senator Udall and Senator Collins pertaining to the submission of S.J. Res. 10 are printed…

I would associate myself with the comments of Senator Van Hollen, who I think hit the nail on the head when it comes to this overreach by the President. I rise in support of the growing calls for action on climate change that are echoing…

I rise to oppose the nomination of Eric Miller to be circuit judge for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Senate traditions command respect, and if we are going to change them, we should do so in a bipartisan way. Changing…

I am pleased to be leading a bipartisan bill in the House to authorize advanced appropriations for the Indian Health Services.

I urge you to make equitable and non-discretionary Federal funding available directly to tribal nations.
