Pat Roberts: “People think of Kansas as a model agricultural state, i.e., we are a lot more involved in a lot of other things.”

It is an honor to be here today in support of my Kansas friend and colleague Mike Pompeo as the President's nominee for Secretary of State.

Your point is extremely valid. Other countries have beat us to the punch, and we have got to get busy.

I thank my colleagues for joining me in reviewing the nominations of the individuals before us.

Be careful, young man. Some people in my State might want to be able to afford to drive to Colorado to buy your free marijuana.
