This is part of free speech, is you being able to speak but also you listening. And me being able to speak.

Madam President, American summertime is when we celebrate and commemorate the patriots who fought to establish and protect this great Republic. From Memorial Day through Independence Day and on to Veterans Day, communities across this…

Madam President, the last week we were here, I gave my weekly ``Time To Wake Up'' speech, as usual. It is a speech I wrote well earlier. In a truly and, unfortunately, almost eerie coincidence, in my speech last week I spoke about a…

Madam President, I would like to yield 5 minutes to my friend Senator Blunt and then reclaim the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.

I ask unanimous consent to speak as in morning business. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. Health Care

Madam President, I come to the floor today as millions of students in high school and colleges across the country have recently graduated. I had an opportunity to attend a number of commencements across Wyoming to speak to a number of…

Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senator from Ohio, Mr. Brown, speak after me for up to 10 minutes. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.

Mr. President, I listened carefully to the statement made by the Republican leader. He talked about the issue of increased costs for colleges, saying the tuition is going up, and we have a student loan issue coming up with interest rates…

Mr. President, last week we lost a Chicago original. Father Andrew Greeley was a Catholic priest in Chicago and a man of great accomplishment. He was a best-selling author, college professor, newspaper columnist, and a sociologist at the…

@Jonzy1523 @TrumpChicago Thanks, very proud of it.

Madam President, first let me congratulate Senator Flake on his maiden speech. It was very thoughtful and I think a challenge to this body to get back to the work it has been given by the American people. I come to the floor to once again…

Madam President, I ask unanimous consent the order for the quorum call be rescinded. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. Immigration

Madam President, I rise this afternoon to say a few words about the immigration reform bill that, as I understand it, we will begin discussing next week. As the son of an immigrant, somebody who came to this country at the age of 17…

I just have a simple question, which is: How is it that we are going to get agreement from the House and the Senate in a conference committee if the Speaker of the House continues to refuse to go to conference? How are we going to get that…

Will the gentleman yield, because we don't agree on cutting the kids' education budget?

Will the gentleman yield? Why are those levels at the levels they are? Would the gentleman answer that question? The SPEAKER pro tempore. The time of the gentleman has expired.

That is the case. The gentleman should go read the Appropriations Committee 302(b) allocations.

I'm not questioning the integrity of the chairman of the Budget Committee. This is not just about process. As I indicated, you adopt this rule and you're essentially applying a 20 percent cut below sequester to the part of the budget that…
