I agree with the distinguished Senator from Missouri in every respect, and I hope we get our wish to have that meaningful vote later on today. I thought I would take a few moments to explore a history lesson. Edmond Burke once famously…

I think that part of the challenge for policy is when there is--and, by the way, these things go up and they go down.

We are Israel's strongest strategic ally.

The Iranian regime certainly can be expected to increase its missile programs with investment from unfrozen financial assets.

Current assessments of Iran's capabilities indicate the range, accuracy and quantity of Iran's ballistic arsenal today is improving dramatically in real time.

Iran's missile and rocket development continues to pose a potential threat for U.S. forces and partner nations in the region.

It is striking that from right to left, every ideology within the country of Israel is opposed to this agreement.

The arms embargo and ballistic missile restrictions on Iran will be lifted not later than eight years from now, and possibly much sooner.

The JCPOA makes no mention of the arms embargo or the missile embargo.

Throughout the negotiations, including in the weeks prior to the agreement, the administration promised 'anywhere, anytime' inspections.

I believe our Gulf partners will seek their own advanced surface-to-surface delivery systems.

They are a nuclear threshold state, and they have denied all along that they had any intention of doing so up and to the present time.

I think we all can agree that Iran is unlikely to change its regional behavior in the wake of this agreement.

I am very interested in telehealth, and I think members of this committee are.

I think we will acknowledge that that auction was a huge success.

I once again come to the floor to talk about a Feinstein-Wicker amendment to this Transportation bill, which I hope we can have a vote on and dispose of and let the U.S. Senate work its will on, either late tonight or perhaps tomorrow…

Once again, I stress the point, this is Pennsylvania specific. Pennsylvania has made a considered decision not to allow these. I think it ill-behooves us as a Congress to say we know better about the roads and the condition of the bridges…

I suggest the absence of a quorum. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll. The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll and the following Senators entered the Chamber and answered to their names: [Quorum No. 6 Leg.]…

I know she wants to talk about the larger issue. If it is, in fact, a modest and relatively harmless extension of the size, then I think perhaps States might want to make that decision themselves. They may very well conclude--39 have not…

I rise to talk about a very important amendment that Senator Feinstein and I will be offering to the transportation bill when we move to consideration. That vote may be around 2 a.m., and then the clock will tick. But then at some point on…

I ask for the yeas and nays. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there a sufficient second? There appears to be a sufficient second. The clerk will call the roll. The senior assistant legislative clerk called the roll.

I do agree. I would contrast the magnanimous statements of the Tripresidency and the gesture of the Serbian President in attending with the disappointing actions of the Russian leadership, under the leadership of President Putin, in…

I am pleased to join my colleague from New Hampshire today to speak about a moving and important commemoration that she and I attended over the weekend. We were part of the U.S. delegation led by former President Bill Clinton that traveled…

I ask unanimous consent that Senator Shaheen and I be allowed to enter into a colloquy concerning the 20th anniversary of the Srebrenica massacre. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. 20th Anniversary of the…

The Senator from New Hampshire is exactly right. It is in the United States' interest that we care about the Balkans, that we care about Bosnia and Herzegovina. We owe it to the U.S. troops who were deployed there in 1995 and later, who…
