Roy Blunt

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Am I able to opt out? Am I able to say it is OK for you to track what I am saying on Facebook, but I do not want you to track what I am texting to somebody else off Facebook on an android phone?

Now, the FTC last year flagged cross-device tracking as one of their concerns generally that people are tracking devices that the users of something like Facebook do not know they are being tracked.

So do people now give you permission to track specific devices in their contract? And if they do, is that a relatively new addition to what you do?

first of all, I think the session led by Senator Alexander and Senator Collins on the cost-sharing has been very helpful and shows the impact that would have if we went forward with it, but I want to talk about the funding bill itself. The…

everybody doesn't just come up with the same description of someone they have worked with every day by accident. When we think about everything that has been said and everyone independently setting down what we remember about Senator…

in the next few days, we will begin to debate this important bill on sex trafficking. This is something that, for whatever reason, the country turned its back on for too long. As the ways to communicate and the ways to offer so-called…

It's highly possible that I don't understand how 5G is going to work.

5G would be implemented in those last people's served.

I want to join my colleague from West Virginia, as well as our friend from South Dakota, to say how much I appreciate the effort that Senator Crapo has made to put this bill together. It is exactly how the Congress is supposed to work and…

In that article, George W. Bush talked about the impact Billy Graham had on his life. My favorite line from that article talked about when George W. Bush's father was President, and his father was gone, and he and his mother Barbara were…

I want to spend a few minutes talking about your fellow North Carolinian, Billy Graham. It is very appropriate that you are in the Chair as I do this--and some of my colleagues are going to follow--as we honor the life and legacy of Billy…

I am pleased to come and talk today. This is a week where we had all anticipated a return to the Senate, where ideas are widely debated. I was standing by the majority leader last week when he was talking about this, and he said that we…

when the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into law in December, we heard a lot about what was going to immediately happen. This was going to be a tax cut for the rich. Corporations were going to use their money to buy back their stock and…

And what have you done since then to secure that data in a better way?

So, Mr. Flynn, when Uber has somebody get inside their system, did I understand that that would be their records on where every driver drove and every rider rode?

I join Senator Grassley and my colleagues in supporting the bill before us today. As we debate this issue, it always seems to be such a defining issue in terms of who we are and whom we hope to be. No country in Europe allows a pregnancy…

I think the generally accepted estimate is that world food demand doubles between now and 2050.

I wish to thank Senator Barrasso and Senator Carper for their bipartisan work to get this nomination to the floor. I have known R.D. James for a long time. He understands the projects involved, the work involved, and the challenges…

We cannot cut programs that help our communities prepare for and respond to threats.

I believe it's time to reexamine our transportation security strategy and refocus our efforts.

one of the unusual things about the moment we find ourselves in is that we are debating on virtually all fronts on topics that 70 percent of the Senators agree on. When you look at the appropriating bill, at least 70 Senators are for the…

I think the pain-capable bill was passed by the House in October. We have thousands of Americans coming this week, focusing on tomorrow, to talk about this issue. These two bills are two of their priorities, but of course their priority is…

I am here with the Senator from Oklahoma-- and we are about to be joined by the Senator from Iowa--to talk about the topic Senator Lankford just said is difficult to talk about. When you actually stand up and explain what is going on, it…

I am here today with my colleague Senator Capito to talk about something that is getting a lot of attention but needs even more attention from this Congress, which is the opioid epidemic--the epidemic the President has rightly called a…
