We have lost more Americans to drug overdoses since 1999 than the number of American lives lost in wars or conflicts since the Civil War, and it is absolutely heartbreaking.

We simply cannot afford to add another $750 billion to the national debt.

They want to save lives. They don't want anyone to go through what they have gone through.

The last time the NLRB tried this, a study found that this policy led to 376,000 fewer jobs and $33.3 billion in lost output across the economy.

Rural areas have been left behind, the money has not gone appropriately for the challenges they have.

One out of every three franchise owners say they wouldn't own a small business without the franchise business model.

I am 100% supportive of that goal as studies show patients treated at NCI-Designated Cancer Centers have higher survival and recovery rates.

The budget proposes $49.8 billion in funding for NIH, including 21st Century Cures and ARPA-H.

Well, I think this law is very clear, basically, it says that the patient himself and the guardians have to have permission, and give you permission to do it.

I am 100% supportive of that goal as studies show patients treated at NCI-Designated Cancer Centers have higher survival and recovery rates.

It is not an understatement to say this has been an unmitigated disaster caused by an inexcusable failure of leadership.

We are spending more on giving money away than we ever did on education. It makes no sense to me at all.

Why don't we just educate a person that basically when they take the debt out, when they sign up for the Stafford Loan, that they think is free money, it is not free money.
