Why did the company that made the mistake make a profit off of that mistake?

But it is the right choice for some number of millions of Americans, is it not?

The basic question is: Who should incur the costs of those mistakes--you guys or the rest of the country?

here is what is happening with so-called ``tax reform.'' Tonight, the Budget Committee is voting on a budget resolution that does two things. First, it sets the spending limits for everything in the government-- environment, energy…

You do not do it very well for a living, except to the extent that you make massive profits off of making mistakes.

And why would not you inform the public about it?

Over 80 percent of American Indian and Alaska Native women experience violence in their lifetime.

Human trafficking is no exception to this trend.

I would strongly encourage Indian Health Services, the Bureau of Indian Affairs and other frontline agencies to work with the DOJ funded AMBER Alert Initiative for Indian County.

I am proud that both bills passed the full Senate last week.

I thank the Senator from Connecticut. That is right. I would just point out that they are going to get the fiscal impact from the CBO in order to comply with the terms of reconciliation, but that is, actually, not what impacts the American…

I think the Senator is right. I agree with him. I think that one of the most encouraging things over the last 5 weeks has been Lamar Alexander and Patty Murray and their ability to work together. I mean, if you had told, I think, either of…
