I really have been wondering about mobile technologies where we could take the best medicine we have...

I just want to say the defense communities that surround both Barksdale and Fort Polk have a long and proven track record of fully supporting--enthusiastically so--these two vital military installations.

I look forward to doing everything I can to support you and the committee's work to provide our military with the essential resources it needs.

It is good to be with a committee that has a lot of authority and power.

It is paramount that we put somebody in charge at the head of an agency, an agency where we have seen a 15 percent increase.

Mr. President, we need you to nominate a Commissioner now.

Mr. President, we need a nominee, and we need one now. America deserves nothing less.

We need to make sure that we both nominate and confirm and put somebody at the head of this vital agency for all of America.

This is a particular concern at a time when we have seen a dramatic increase in assaults on agents. And just last year, assaults on agents were up 76 percent. They totaled 774 for 2017.

Our government has placed the men and women who patrol our border, as well as the American citizens who live on or near the border, in a very difficult position.

I have long been committed to ensuring that our country does right by our veterans.
