Senators Cantwell and Hatch are demonstrating how the two sides can work together on major economic challenges.

This crisis is a five-alarm fire across the country and all over my home State of Oregon.

I'm looking forward to working more with them on these issues.

Our country's housing policy needs an urgent remodel.

The bottom line is, if we want to increase the supply of affordable rental housing for lower-income households, it is financially impossible to do without the tax credit.

The tax credit is the most successful affordable housing production program in our Nation's history.

I want to thank Senator Cantwell, Senator Hatch, and all the bipartisan cosponsors.

I believe that people with mental illness and substance use disorders need access to services, and I will be a champion for ensuring that they are able to receive these services.

Protecting the public's health will of course involve a strong commitment to prevention, and the President's budget recognizes this reality.

I look forward to working with the aging network and Congress to this end.

At a certain point, we need people on the ground that can do this work.

I want to thank you for your leadership and the Ranking Member on this.

There's a serious danger that an artificial deadline will push negotiators toward lower standard proposals they know the other side will accept.

The U.S. cannot accept protectionist approaches to the Internet, grounded in either mercantilism or authoritarianism.

My view is, NAFTA could use a complete overhaul.

In my view, the trade agenda ought to be focused on creating more high-skill, high-wage middle-class jobs right here in the United States--red, white and blue jobs.

This remains one of the most harmful 21st-century trade barriers.

We need good-paying jobs, a high standard of living for people in the United States.

I have always said we want to export our products, not our jobs.
