A lot of it is self-inflicted wounds by the Administration.

Not a lot of people know about it, starting with Admiral Rickover. Just really remarkable.

I just want to thank Senator Wyden for his cooperation working on this nominee. Mr. Sams, I do agree, is qualified. We had a long discussion this afternoon about some of the big issues that are impacting my State as it relates to the…

in reserving the right to object, I am requesting a vote on my amendment No. 4329. I am very disappointed that my Democratic colleagues will refuse to vote on this very simple, very important, very constitutionally correct amendment that…

reserving the right to object, I want to commend my colleague from Oregon and his comments. As a matter of fact, I don't disagree with pretty much anything he said. I had my first good meeting with Mr. Sams this morning, and I would agree…

I want to thank my colleague from Oregon, and I will commit to working with him to try and get this done before we head out to recess. We know the treasures of Alaska. As I mentioned, two-thirds of all the Park Service in the country is in…

it is Thursday afternoon, and it is one of my favorite times in the Senate because it is the time I have the opportunity to come down on the Senate floor to talk about an Alaskan who is making a difference in their community or the State…

a number of us are down on the Senate floor here talking about the disastrous Biden administration policies that from day one--day one--have sought to increase energy prices and put American workers out of work. How have they been doing…
