Well, I guess what I am trying to get at--is your problem with the percentages or the concept? Do you support the concept of revenue sharing from offshore wind revenues? Yes or no?

I rise today in recognition of the 100th anniversary of the Department of Maine, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Maine VFW. Maine VFW was founded in 1921 as a nonprofit organization dedicated to serving U.S. veterans of overseas conflicts…

But, these partisan efforts will change that.

I say to my colleagues, let's set aside this disastrous budget.

We should not just pour money into schools that cannot get their students out with a degree or a certificate.

If they cannot get everything they want, they would rather have nothing.

I’ve been very reluctant for nine years about modifying the filibuster rule with policy but this has nothing to do with policy. This is about keeping the United States on the world that could be a severe recession.

I think it was clear from the testimony today that the military, or at least the two Generals that were in front of us believe that maintaining some presence in Afghanistan would be a good idea. The President obviously rejected that advice.

I have comments today about an extraordinary member of the Federal workforce, but before I do, I would like to respond to a few of the comments that I heard as I entered the Chamber with regard to Afghanistan. The first is, nobody I know…

Are we talking 2 years, 5 years, 10 years, 20 years? Be more specific. How close are we?

I think we are leaving discoveries on the table if we do not empower these wonderful institutions.

EPSCoR is the key to unlocking it.

today I wish to recognize and congratulate COL Brad Boyd on his outstanding service to our Nation both as a member of my defense and foreign policy team, and as a U.S. Army infantry officer with 30 years of combined military experience in…

I appreciate the adoption of this resolution. The American lobster, the North American lobster, is a staple, an iconic product of the State of Maine. It supports our coastal economy; it produces well over $1 billion a year of economic…

I am beginning my comments with my mask on for a very specific reason. If you can tell what is populating the mask, they are America's favorite crustacean: the North American lobster. I ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to the…

I ask unanimous consent that the resolution be agreed to, the preamble be agreed to, and that the motions to reconsider be considered made and laid upon the table with no intervening action or debate. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without…

I hope that you will commit to absolute transparency and clarity about the administration of the Great American Outdoors Act.

I want to be Winston Churchill, not Neville Chamberlain.

Execution is as important as vision.

Science must lead us out of this crisis.

I rise to speak of a friend and colleague whom we lost this week. Mike Enzi, a Senator from Wyoming, retired from this body in January of this year when his successor was seated but served here honorably for several decades. I think the…
