today I am honored to stand on this hallowed Senate floor and share my gratitude for and the priorities of the people of Kansas. I want to start by thanking the people of Kansas who believed in me and sent me here to represent them. It is…

I thank the gentleman, my neighbor from Oklahoma, for yielding. And I thank the gentleman from Maryland, our chairman of the Small Business Committee, for his cooperation. Our amendment will allow farmers and ranchers categorized as a…

I ask unanimous consent that I be allowed to complete my remarks. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered.

I guess I am past my time, but I have been told we could take all the nuclear waste in the United States and put it on one football field and if we just had a place to do that.

I think my first question will probably be to Ms. Roma. I am just shocked to see these nuclear plants being retired, in my opinion, prematurely.

But do you see the hypocrisy in what we are doing to America?

That just seems hypocritical.

Our schools, our youth are in a mental health crisis. Our youth are suffering from increased instances of suicide, substance abuse, overdoses, depression, a true epidemic.

That is a national security crisis, but I want to talk about the health care crisis going on there.

Leadership is what America is now looking for. They are looking for a strong, consistent, honest voice from the NIH, from the CDC, the FDA and from the White House.

What would your plea be to the teachers that are refusing to go back and teach?

I knew, from any type of a crisis, though, that minority-owned businesses would have the hardest access to capital.

I am very proud of the Paycheck Protection Program. I think it is one of the best programs the Federal Government has ever ran out.

I want to go on the record that I am in favor of a cleaner, safer, healthier environment.

Farmers and ranchers were the original conservationists, the greatest conservationists in the world.

How can we figure out who had it then? How can we follow the money?

It is the honor of a lifetime as a fifth-generation farm kid to now be sitting on the Senate Ag Committee.

I feel like I am here with the weight of three million Kansans who are waking up to utility bills which are just through the roof.

Agriculture is already leading the way and is really the only industry in the world that can actually already--is already doing this.

You know, I am going to guess it is Mr. Wood. How could FERC investigate, if there was anything nefarious, what does that process look like?

I rise today to keep fighting for those who are still hurting from this plague. I am fighting for those who have yet to receive the vaccine, and I am fighting for those who are not back to work. I am fighting to protect Medicare dollars…

I would like to submit this statement for the record regarding the impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump. The statement reflects my thoughts on this complicated constitutional matter and its implications for future…

I think American innovation has had a lot to do with it.
