one of the things that is most important is that Democrats and Republicans in the Senate and in the House find a way to trust each other again

the idea that trips to a place like Norway and Malaysia have been taken that cost a lot of money

Just keep in mind, if it is not perfect, make it better.

Without enforcement, regulations are nothing more than suggestions.

if you do not have the trust between, in this case, the commercial fishermen and the agencies whose job it is to oversee it, you make that change all the more difficult

I would just ask that as you go forward, that this continue to be the standard that is set, whether they are fired or not, but that they are held accountable in ways that are appropriate.

We have a term in Delaware, maybe you do here in Massachusetts, for a situation like the one that you uncovered and have investigated and tried to straighten it out. We call it a dog's breakfast.

Just give us some clear examples. Just be real specific.

the appearance can be more damaging sometimes than the actual trip itself, so continue to be vigilant in that area for us

Thanks to Senator John Kerry, that happened.

one of the reasons why we do not get more done in Washington these days is because of a lack of trust, across party lines, across the aisle.
