Because I mean, as reported this summer, North Korean hackers steal blueprints for U.S. fighter jets.

This administration's policy of strategic patience... has resulted in the most rapid advancements in North Korea's arsenal of mass destruction.

We intend in the coming weeks and in the life of this administration to pursue all of these avenues with the objective of squeezing the North Korean economy.

The best sanctions are those that do not have to be applied because the credible threat of sanctions acts as a deterrent.

I thank Senator Daines for organizing this discussion again today, as he did the discussion we had yesterday. And I thank our colleague from Alaska for his leadership on this matter for a number of weeks as we have discussed why this…

I'm calling on the county Commissioners involved in Colorado, the broadcasters and DISH together, so that we can convene in a meeting next month in Colorado to discuss ways that we can reach a final resolution.

I'd like to commend the Commission on a rare bipartisan win with its recent issuance of the Spectrum Frontiers item.

In light of those rules, the Commissioners from La Plata County and Montezuma County have expressed interest in moving forward with the market modification process.
