my friend from Oregon, we have had a discussion not only on this particular issue. I respect his point of view. And I think we both agree, though, that when it comes to healthcare, it is something that is breaking the bank in this country…

I ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to the immediate consideration of my bill, which is at the desk. Further, I ask that the bill be considered read a third time and passed, and that the motion to reconsider be considered made…

I rise today because, in a practical place like the State of Indiana, believe it or not, we actually balance our budget every year. We have commonsense things in place that if you are going to receive some benefits of some sort, maybe you…

I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call be rescinded. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Murphy). Without objection, it is so ordered. The Senator from Indiana. Unanimous Consent Request

I am a strong believer in First Amendment protections, and we have obviously seen coming from the business world as well, the tech industry carries so much clout.

I have dropped a bill called the Fair Care Act, which is the most comprehensive approach to what you could do here in the Federal Government to make it consumer driven, embrace transparency, embrace competition.

a quick response to that before I ask unanimous consent on the next item is that that is an argument I hear so often, that the city that supports some of the toughest State gun laws and local laws that ends up having the statistics that no…

here in a moment, I am going to ask for unanimous consent on the ATF Accountability Act and the Protecting the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Act. Governor Cuomo has declared gun violence a public health emergency in New York. ``We want to do…

I come to the floor today to oppose the confirmation of David Chipman, President Biden's nominee for Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Many Hoosiers are concerned about the nomination of Mr. Chipman, and…

I have always felt an inherent responsibility to do things right, keep your employees safe, that that is part and parcel of growing an enterprise.

in the Senate here, prior to getting here, I have been a tree farmer since the late eighties and have been involved in the agricultural part of farming, other than driving the tractor, for a long time. And farming has got to be one of the…

There should not be barriers to entry. You should have full transparency.

It is getting squeezed on both sides of the equation. You have got more concentration, fewer options on selling what you produce, and fewer options to control your input costs along the journey as well.

I have been the loudest voice trying to reform health care.

We need to make sure that we are not misguiding, that we are not stigmatizing, and that we give the full range of options.

I am a big believer that you have got to always defer to that local input.

I would hope that that uniformity never comes from here and that it is within the domicile and prerogative of the State.

the most significant threat to our country, in his mind, is not the red menace, but the red ink.

I think defense is the most important thing we do here in the Federal Government.

I think it is silly to pour more resources in anything that is not delivering outcomes that look like they are at least headed in the right direction.

Is it worth it to send my kid into a system that 50 percent of the kids that go there don't pursue it?

We need better skills that are being delivered out of high school.

I think it'd be good to at least--I think that would symbolize the fact that we're getting something that's gone through some normal process and it's bipartisan and it wouldn't preclude doing the broader package that you're talking about.

Would it make sense to maybe phase it in, try it, maybe not go full scale across the country, but owning a trucking company myself before I got here, it is the biggest issue we contend with along with the fact that that pathway in life…

It is not about spending more money, it is really more about finding how we change the system.
