When the Obama administration negotiated the Paris Accords, it was critical that they secure commitments from the fastest-growing economies.

I want to--I think it is really important to state clearly that we are fully committed to sovereignty and territorial integrity in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

If we believe in a Europe whole, free, prosperous, and at peace, and that has been a bipartisan national security objective for my entire career, then we need to address that and push back against malign influence.

This is a mounting national security crisis for this country.

Despite China's massive and unconstrained nuclear build-up, the administration is considering a sole purpose nuclear declaratory policy that would put U.S. allies at immense risk.

rhetoric and actions that put that at risk and put at risk Bosnia's Euro-Atlantic integration... is both counterproductive, self-defeating, and itself quite risky.

My position is that we can be even more aligned because, optimally, our main objective is to see real reform in Cuba.

I cannot imagine anything more dangerous than not having an ambassador, an incredibly qualified ambassador, in Poland right now.

I have introduced legislation, the Biological Weapons Policy Act, that would give our country team in China a larger role in ensuring that biological research cooperation with China does not put us or the world at risk.

We can’t lose a single vote in the United States Senate. We have to come up with a major historic investment in regular people, in average, middle class families.

I ask unanimous consent, notwithstanding rule XXII, that upon the use or yielding back of time on the Donfried nomination, the Senate vote on the motions to invoke cloture on the Medina, Phee, Robinson, and Lewis nominations; that if…

For the information of the Senate, we expect four rollcall votes beginning at around 8 p.m. Those votes will be cloture on the Medina, Phee, Robinson, and Lewis nominations.

reserving the right to object, how quickly my colleagues forget that it was President Trump who entered into negotiations with the Taliban. It was President Trump who entered into an agreement with the Taliban that committed the United…

I think Senator Blumenthal has covered it well.

She was able to lead an effort to redesign the city plan and the city's zoning laws.

She is a nationally acknowledged expert on zoning and land use law.

You really could not pick somebody better suited for this role.

These endless wars overseas don’t make the country safer. And, in fact, it’s time to acknowledge that the most significant threats to the country are not conventional military threats, are not potential invading armies. They are things…
