Mr. Chief Justice, I, along with Senator Lee, send to the desk a question for the President's counsel. The CHIEF JUSTICE. Thank you. The question from Senators Braun and Lee is for the counsel for the President: Under Professor…
You know, the Bolton revelation, which I thought was kind of discussed fairly last night by Dershowitz, that you can't get that to rise to the level of impeachment.
it has been almost a year since I was sworn in. I thought it was a good time to kind of reminisce a little bit about the first year of being a U.S. Senator from Indiana. I want to cite that, when you come from a place like Indiana, it is…
reserving the right to object, ObamaCare has failed because it is the classic example of Big Government getting in cahoots with a healthcare industry that is broken. It was doomed to fail because when has Big Government and Big Business…
reserving the right to object, we have made progress here this evening in the sense that my colleague has brought up another topic--transparency for prescriptions. Across the board, when it comes to hospitals and exposing their charge…
today I voted against amendment No. 1141. I would like to take an opportunity to explain my position. In September 2019, the Treasury Department reported, in accordance with Federal laws, that the highway trust fund's mass transit account…
we are going to vote on a CRA later this afternoon, and this has been the issue dominating D.C. and did in my campaign: the cost of healthcare. I am going to vote against the CRA, and I am not going to go into the particularities of it. I…
I rise to speak today because I just finished up visiting all 92 counties in our home State, and every one of them, especially at the tail end, have backed what we have been doing here, especially following the lead of President Trump…
on rollcall vote No. 311, I voted yea. It was my intention to vote nay. Therefore, I ask unanimous consent that I be permitted to change my vote since it will not affect the outcome. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so…
I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call be rescinded. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. The Senator from Ohio. 25th Anniversary of Americorps
I rise to honor those who lost their lives tragically 18 years ago and to make sure that we never forget what happened then. I vividly remember that morning. I was in my own office in Jasper, IN. I didn't have a TV. Somebody there brought…
whistleblowers play a key role in holding the Federal Government accountable for waste, fraud, abuse, mismanagement, and illegal activity. It is therefore appropriate that even though Whistleblower Appreciation Day was yesterday, we take a…
I rise today to congratulate Chairman Barrasso and Ranking Member Carper on their introduction of the EPW Committee's 5-year infrastructure bill, the America's highway infrastructure act. Back in Indiana, as a member of the State…
I have the good fortune every Thursday of sitting here anywhere from 3 to 6, depending on what the workload is. Since I have gotten here, as a Senator from Indiana, as a Main Street entrepreneur, almost everything I talk about is stuff…
this is an outrage. We are ready to pass the USMCA. Today you will hear from Senators who support this deal. In the Senate we have more than enough votes to pass the USMCA. There is no reason to wait. The Democrats have known the contents…
it is true. I am a mainstream entrepreneur, and I have been involved with business my entire life, including the farm markets. I started a turkey farm back in 1979 from scratch, and I was involved in it for 32 years. I sold my share of it…
Senator Grassley and I attended the rollout of President Trump's Executive order to get the healthcare industry on the move. The chairman of the Finance Committee, the chairman of the Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee, and…
I sit here every Thursday from 3 o'clock to 6 o'clock and hear several speeches that are made. I happen to sit on the Budget Committee with Chairman Enzi. I hope everyone listened carefully to what he just said. The Comptroller General was…
I rise today to celebrate the talent and steadfast dedication of Purdue University's All-American Marching Band, which will be performing for the 100th time at the 103rd Running of the Indy 500. Every year, the ``Greatest Spectacle in…
I was asked to bat cleanup on National Small Business Week for our conference. I have been a Main Street entrepreneur my entire life. My wife and I moved back to our hometown in 1978. She will celebrate her 41st anniversary this September…
I thank Senator Ernst for allowing me the opportunity to talk about opportunity zones. So much has happened since President Trump has been elected that I think has brought opportunity. The economy is obviously booming. In the State of…
you just heard the story from Senator Young. He had the benefit of knowing Richard Lugar more recently. My story is a little different. I am going to have to think back to 45 years ago. I was between my sophomore and junior years at Wabash…
I ask unanimous consent that the following letter be printed in the Congressional Record. There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in the Record, as follows: U.S. Senate, March 14, 2019. Hon. Mitch McConnell, Senate…
although I had prepared my remarks to address what many of my colleagues have just covered--and that would be the preposterous proposal of the Green New Deal--I want to take a little different angle. I think there is a point where so often …
