Isn't that where the jurisdiction should be, given the limited ability, which the Federal Trade Commission has legally?

We must ensure that our laws keep pace with the rapid changes in technology and consumer behavior.

I am deeply concerned about that. The proposal includes semi-automatic pistols, assault weapons, and even military sniper rifles.

I, along with Senators Feinstein and Leahy, recently sent a letter to the Secretary of State opposing this unwise move.

I supported a close and supportive security relationship to defeat Boko Haram, provided that the Nigerian forces we support are in compliance with the Leahy laws and broader human rights standards.

So we need more hammers to be hitting those holes.

Perpetrators like Backpage.com should be brought to justice.

You've all presented very compelling testimony here today.

Before I start my remarks on the dangers of nuclear war, I want to take a moment to congratulate the Watertown High School field hockey program in Massachusetts. Up until this past week, the Watertown Raiders had not lost a single field…

It's not as though the auto industry right now doesn't know that these vehicles can be hacked. It's all there, and I think the warnings are there.

I appreciate it. And that's why I've introduced the legislation the SPY Car Act, that directs NHTSA to establish cybersecurity protections for all vehicles.

Oh, I absolutely do, and that's one of the biggest concerns that I have.

There is always destruction. You know, when they invented the 'talkies,' all the piano players in the silent movie theaters all lost their jobs.

Do you believe that this Committee, as it actively works on legislation to promote the deployment of autonomous vehicles, that we should also create policies to help those working Americans who will lose their jobs because of these…

Bristol Bay is a national treasure that must be protected.

So hundreds of thousands of people who have lost their jobs, the 100,000 people who were detained, the 50,000 arrests, all of this subsequent to the April 16 constitutional referendum, are an indication of how this consolidation of power…

So let me then go to, if I can, the Gulen question because on that night of the, quote/unquote, coup, that is all we heard from the Turkish leadership was Gulen, Gulen, Gulen and Pennsylvania.

Turkey was never much of a democracy to begin with.

I think we should be working to make sure that this is a prudent program and that we're on track.

So to a certain extent--and we give the GAO credit for all of their great work because they were kind of handicapped by the fact that it's hard to factor in the answer to the problems that had been identified, but there are answers that…

The GAO report, to a certain extent, is out of date because it doesn't factor in the E-Verifier program.

The heart of it, the essence of it.

A vision without funding is a hallucination

The first and most important goal we had was just to make sure that kids didn't die, that they weren't drinking the water, that they weren't put in situations that could lead to these human tragedies.

A 30 percent cut is like moving kryptonite over toward Superfund
