Tax breaks are an insufficient way to rebuild roads, highways, and rail.

Do you believe your fiscal year 2018 request will remain at this level? What is the ideal number you would procure?

If it hasn't been, or at least hasn't been submitted to the Committee, would you agree that the vote should be postponed until we have it?

Thanks very much, Mr. Chairman.

What efforts are you taking to ensure a strong and reliable multi-year procurement strategy for the UH-60 million?

So why not reinstate those programs? It doesn't cost a lot. We've got the space. I can help you, you know. I still know how to use tools.

Well, if it gives them any hope, I hope you will give everyone you are in contact with the message that on this Committee and I think in the Senate there is a lot of support for what you are doing and that we will fight these cuts that are…

this mistaken account was apparently included in the letter that Senator Blumenthal entered in the record on March 29, 2017.

We don't want to put American companies at any disadvantage.

The Coast Guard has played a critical role in our country's safety and security for 227 years.

Common sense tells me if you order enough of them, the price comes down with scale.

we're very much in dangerous uncharted waters, and I hope we'll continue this conversation.

What is the ideal procurement number for fiscal year 2018 on the F-35 for you?

Shouldn't insecure devices be regarded as, in effect, defective products, consumer products that are perhaps as dangerous as a toy with small parts that children may swallow?

later today the Senate will vote on H.J. Res. 69, and I am here to state as strongly and emphatically as possible my opposition to this misguided and unwise measure. As a Senator who fights to preserve and protect the vast diversity of…

So readiness is a key to keeping and attracting skilled pilots.

I believe we would be naive to think this event is isolated to the Marine Corps and could not occur in the Army.
