History demonstrates that we best serve Native American people when Tribal Governments are empowered to lead their communities, and when Federal officials speak with and listen to Tribal leaders in formulating Federal policy that affects…

So families are paying more. Child-care centers are spending more--things like masks and tests, their ratios of supervisors to children--and yet child-care workers are not making any more money.

But our child-care system is in crisis.

An institution responsible for the security of our financial system and the growth of our economy cannot blind itself to climate issues.

I will support Chair Powell's nomination for another term running the Fed, but even he thinks that it is just common sense that the Fed should work to mitigate the risk of significant economic loss triggered by climate change.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and congratulations to all three of our nominees.

I have long advocated for rewriting our ethics rules to prevent conflicts of interest, to close the revolving door, and to restore Americans' trust in our political system.

For the first time in almost a decade we will have a full Board of Governors at the Fed, one that reflects the country.

We need a whole lot more people in institutions like the Fed who understand how ignorant that term is, and misleading, and who understand that economic growth only matters if it reaches people like in Oak Harbor, Ohio.

Listen to what the Washington Post Editorial Board wrote. ... the Senate should move quickly to put them in place.

I do not believe in solitary confinement for extended periods of time for anyone.

If there is no further business to come before the Senate, I ask that it stand in recess under the previous order. There being no objection, the Senate, at 10:01 p.m., recessed until Wednesday, January 19, 2022, at 10 a.m.

I want to say a very special thank-you to my colleague, the Senator from Oregon. Senator Merkley has worked harder and more persistently on questions about the filibuster and the procedures of the U.S. Senate for years now and tried to…

Maybe the people who need to also be repealed and replaced are Manchin and Sinema.

Today’s filibuster doesn’t encourage debate. It promotes cowardice. Senators can torpedo bills without saying a single word in public or even stepping to the floor of the United States Senate. This is not how a so-called deliberative body…

Inflation has gone up at this moment because of the way that prices are passed on in a more concentrated market.

Dealing with inflation requires the Fed to act if the problem is an overheated economy, but dealing with rising consumer prices also involves the FTC, the Department of Justice in breaking up monopolies and investigating crooked…

I hope that the Fed treads carefully in using its tools to help lower prices for American families.

Those firms are, quote, 'raising prices because they can.'

We can and we must change the law so it fulfills its original goals.

It is time for Congress to make reforms to SSI.

She is below the poverty level because of her circumstances. She receives an SSI check, but she is going to be punished for working, punished for claiming Social Security, and punished if she saves any money.

Financial literacy is critical for Americans who are trying to make key decisions like planning for retirement, but low-incomes families navigating a thin social safety net that gives them too little help, all the education and counseling…

We are watching what’s happening all around this country right now, a concerted effort by the Republicans to deny people the opportunity to vote.

Right now, we got all 50 Democrats in the Senate are solidly on board. We’ve got the vice president you just heard from. We can win the vote to protect the vote all across America.
