We could raise a large amount of revenue by reducing the tax gap and focusing that reduction on high-net-worth individuals and large corporations.

In 30 years, experts estimate that spending on Alzheimer's will increase to more than $1 trillion.
Providing continued enhanced funding is a critical weapon in our fight against this disease.
This just underscores the need for more federal support. That is why I will soon be introducing the National Biomedical Research Act, a bill that would invest $100 billion over 10 years in research at NIH and FDA.
Federal funding helps drive innovation, and it helps move us that much closer to a cure.
Even today, Americans spend an estimated $305 billion a year caring for people with Alzheimer's.
I am very hopeful that my colleagues in the Senate will join me in supporting the National Biomedical Research Act. Let us get this one done.
Does HUD have any plans to review the CWCOT program, including whether new guidelines may be necessary?
Using exclusionary zoning to keep families, often lower-income families and families of color out of certain neighborhoods, is wrong.
I was so glad to see President Biden call for the elimination of exclusionary zoning and to end harmful land use policies.
My American Housing and Economic Mobility Act includes a new $10 billion housing innovation grant program.
That is why I am joining Senator Paul and Senator Grassley in reintroducing the Medicare Audiologist Access and Services Act.
Despite their years of schooling and training, audiologists are considered, quote, ``suppliers'' not, quote, ``practitioners'' in the program.
We need the NFIP to change the perception of flood risk as either you have risk or you do not have risk.
Climate change is making flood risk worse with each year, and our homeowners need NFIP coverage to protect their families.
There is no dispute about the basic facts. Sea levels are rising and storms are becoming more intense and more frequent.
Some of these maps have not been updated in decades, but even for maps that are up-to-date, they may not be providing an accurate assessment of the risk.
For every dollar the Government invests in disaster mitigation, we get about $6 in return on that investment.
Floods are our country's most costly natural disasters. Climate change is worsening this crisis.
If the NFIP is ever going to be self-sustaining, the Federal Government is going to have to dramatically increase funding for physical infrastructure.
By 2050, 1 in every 10 properties in Massachusetts is projected to face a substantial risk of flooding.
I think it is time now for our trade negotiators to take leadership and actively set rules that lower drug costs for American families instead of focusing on boosting profits for drug companies.
I believe that the U.S. should be backing these countries on this point too and not try to wiggle out of helping.
The U.S. should be doing everything it can to help other countries ramp up their testing, treatment, and PPE production.
