as my colleague Senator Cruz just mentioned, every member of the military just heard ``I object,'' and the Senator from Washington State just said, ``Let's be real.'' ``Let's be real.'' There is nothing more real than putting your life on…
I am going to speak about a really important bill that I am hoping we are going to pass right here on the Senate floor. It was passed, by the way, previously. It is called the Pay Our Military Act. It is pretty simple. In the event of a…
I ask unanimous consent that the Committee on Appropriations be discharged from further consideration of S. 2835 and the Senate proceed to its immediate consideration. I further ask that the bill be considered read a third time and passed…
I want to thank my colleague and friend Senator Cruz from Texas, who has presented our bill, the Pay Our Coast Guard Act, which he noted is a bipartisan bill in the Commerce Committee--the chairman, the ranking member. I am the ranking…
I am shocked, disappointed, and, to be honest, stunned. I didn't think anyone was going to object to this bill. It makes no sense to do so. I didn't understand the Senator from Washington's explanation. Her colleague from Washington is…
I am on the floor for a couple of reasons but No. 1 and most important is to congratulate General Smith, Gen. Eric Smith, to be the new Commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps. Now, the Presiding Officer may have seen the vote--a pretty…
I am a big fan of our Native American communities, Alaska Native communities.
This is an issue that I think should unite Democrats and Republicans on getting our First Peoples the ability to have clean water.
That operation and maintenance issue is a giant issue we see in Alaska all the time.

It is like airports and other entities, too, all of a sudden they are seeing, like in my State a lot of these entities will go bankrupt, and they weren't the reason for it.
Don't you think it should prioritize, just for fairness, call it racial justice, racial equity, just call it good old American fairness, the communities that don't have anything first?
What is more important, I have asked this many times, policy indicator of success more important than are the people you representing living longer?
the Biden administration has environmental justice and equity with a big asterisk, if you are an Alaska Native or indigenous person from Alaska, you don't get any environmental justice or equity.
I think that is the most of any State in the country. It is all indigenous people.
This is environmental injustice for indigenous people in my State, and it happens every damned day with this Administration.
We're cutting defense spending and -- when it's a very dangerous world. Everybody agrees we -- should not be going below 3% of defense spending.
The biggest national security issue from my perspective, Chuck, is the Biden administration is continuing to put forward defense budget cuts during what everybody -- and the president agrees with this, so does the security of defense…
I give President Biden credit for keeping the unity of NATO, revitalizing NATO.
it is my favorite time of the week here in the U.S. Senate. I like to come down on a regular basis and talk about the Alaskan of the Week. The Alaskan of the Week can be someone who is doing something great for their local community, their…
To my friend and colleague from Rhode Island, I will gladly pass along your birthday greetings to Elverda. Thank you very much. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Rhode Island.
I will take my colleague and friend from Massachusetts up on his offer. Round 1; 16 months later, round 2. That is a lot of people hurting, including Massachusetts fishermen, by this unfair trading that we have with Russia--completely…
