Former senators
Over the last year and a half, our president, Donald Trump, has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis, and we should start acting like it.
The ongoing violence and dire humanitarian situation on the ground in Sudan demand immediate U.S. action.
Oregon’s contributions to the Semiquincentennial Congressional Time Capsule showcase our innovation, natural splendor, and the people who make our state such a remarkable place to call home.

I think this committee vote argues well for a strong vote on the floor.
I had to make concessions that, frankly, I didn’t like. Sen. Cantwell made concessions that she didn’t like.
The only bill that has a realistic path to becoming law is this [Senate] bill.
I think that’s probably what would make the most sense to get everybody’s viewpoint properly represented.
