I wanted to follow up on the meeting you had with Valerie Davidson and the ANTHC.
I thought we had it, and this is on the Camp Lejeune Victims Act and the lack of any contingency fee caps.
I do not want the Federal Government telling me who I am going to hire for an attorney.
This is literally an example of here is a pot of money. Is it going to go to sick Marines and their families or is it going to go to trial lawyers?
The Fish and Wildlife Service has declined to list the Alexander Archipelago wolf in southeast Alaska as endangered.
I even said, Mr. President, this is wrong. You know it, I know it. It is wrong.
The Center for Biological Diversity is not listed in the Constitution, but the Senate is.
The people of King Cove, the vast majority of them are Native, have been consulted for 30 years. They want the road.
If you are going to do something in Alaska, you need to consult with me and Senator Murkowski and our Congresswoman before you do it.
I appreciate that very much. Not if you are going to take away your compliment--if you are going to keep it, I will yield.
I thank the majority leader for his fine compliment to me on the Senate floor about learned remarks. I appreciate that.
The more that this gets delayed without fixing the attorney fee cap issue, the more Marine Corps families and Marines who we are trying to help are going to not get the justice that they deserve.
There have been reports of 40, 50, 60 percent contingency fees, which is just outrageous.
The Biden administration, as we were negotiating the Camp Lejeune Act and the PACT Act, encouraged this Committee to adopt caps.
Trial lawyers are loving it, loving it. But my goodness, you want to talk about scamming.
Seventeen percent is very generous. Dick Durbin's argument, 'Oh, you will not get good lawyers unless it is 30 percent.' No offense, that is BS.
