Those are things that take time. And as I am watching what is happening in Ukraine, people want to see something happen now.

I was in Ukraine with several other Senators back in October, and it was shortly after Russia made its move into Syria.

Do we not have to assume that whatever Russia is doing is going to have some impact on what happens in Ukraine?

I believe that institutions themselves need to have a vested interest in the amount of debt their students take on and can successfully repay.

I want to thank Senator Booker, because he has been very focused on this issue and making sure that we continue to reform our framework for handling UAS to spur innovation while also we need to make sure that we protect safety and privacy.

we should not be doing things here in Congress that hinder the innovation that we need in the country.

we need to make sure that the FAA is operating, that they know what they are expecting, and that this is critical.

as we talk about the challenges at the FAA, one of the things that would help a lot to allowing them to move forward more expeditiously is to reauthorize the FAA

I have introduced the Wildfire and Emergency Airspace Protection Act, which would make it a federal crime to knowingly operate a recreational drone that interferes with disaster response efforts.

One of the things that for many of those small businesses that has been very helpful has been their ability to be more energy efficient and to access assistance with that energy efficiency.

I just wonder if you can talk about the importance of public engagement in siting and permitting these kinds of energy projects.

I think that you will agree that the country is currently witnessing significant transformations in our electricity production.

So I know that the unemployment rate has gone down, and we all, I think, would agree that that is a good thing, but we still have a significant number of people who are no longer looking for work, who do not have the job skills that are…

Are we seeing that in the kind of analysis that you are talking about?

We are certainly putting our efforts on the heroin problem.

Would you agree?

Obviously, this is an issue that we have a great deal of concern about in the Northeast because trafficking is a very big issue.

I wonder if you could talk a little bit about those discussions and how you discuss managing the flow of refugees fleeing ISIS and Assad.
