Pat Roberts: “The Election Assistance Commission has fulfilled its purpose and should be eliminated.”

His brand of unconditional cordiality is increasingly rare, and this institution sure could use a lot more of it.

Instead of going bilateral, bilateral, bilateral, bilateral times 11, to get back into TPP would really send a message to China.

I call this hearing of the Senate Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Committee to order.

I hope we do not stumble on it, and that is to somehow get back engaged with TPP.
