I think we definitely believe in bonuses for success, but we don't believe in bonuses for failure.

Congress must act immediately to put a stop to these anticompetitive behaviors, including abuses of the Orphan Drug Act.

Humira is a blockbuster product that makes billions, tens of billions of dollars a year.

Congress passed the Orphan Drug Act in 1983 to promote the development of treatments for rare diseases.

I am also hopeful that we will soon have a bipartisan commission to examine the root causes of this insurrection.

A fundamental part of accountability is transparency.

But if it were purely partisan, why would we be bringing it up now when Joe Biden is President?

It is a serious problem even in areas that sounds to you like they might not have a problem, like Montgomery County, Maryland.

Thank you, Chairman McGovern, and thanks for convening this excellent discussion.

The people of Washington came to our aid on January 6. When we were being attacked by violent Fascist insurrectionists in this body, in this Chamber, in this Congress, they came to our aid. They sent hundreds of Capitol Police officers and…
