What I have found in consumer protection work that I did as state attorney general, that what is really vital is for the victims to come forward.

May I suggest that the same kind of mass communication that is right now being used by the lawyers seeking clients as a result of the Lejeune protections that we passed, that kind of massive outreach, should be the way to warn veterans…

I want to thank the Chairman for joining Senator Boozman and I in the GUARD VA Benefits Act, which would restore the criminal penalties for unaccredited actors charging veterans fees for their claims.

The Afghan Adjustment Act, which I strongly support, would address the anomalous situation of Afghan refugees.

I read recently about the very substantial numbers of children who are still separated from their families.

I thank the Chairman for committing to have hearings on a standard of accountability and ethics for the Supreme Court.

Senator Casey has been a champion.

Our adversaries know we know what you told us. We know our adversaries know that they know we know.

Our adversaries know we know what you told us. We know our adversaries know that they know we know.

Take Senator Paul's analogy, bread. Someone is going to produce more bread if there is more demand, the price will rise, and the demand will be met.

I am a strong supporter of capitalism, but in this situation why is it not working?

I know that the VA is struggling with the same challenges that every private employer is...

I do not understand.

You are blaming it on the FDA.

I cannot blame it all on the FDA.

I am a strong supporter of capitalism, but in this situation why is it not working?
