Too often the rural voice of America goes unheard.

It would benefit our country, and our State, and our county significantly.

I truly appreciate my colleague, our Chairman from Nebraska, who comes from and understands rural America.

It is kind of nice to have this open conversation versus having to write letters to an office.

this generation is at the forefront of technological advances. In fact, it is making the United States and this generation that lives here one of the best networked in history, in fact, not only here but around the world. The need for new…

We all saw in the report released yesterday that the GAO has recommended again that Congress extend the December 31, 2015, PTC deadline.

Given the concerns of the Crow Nation and the Navajo Nation, which face some of the highest unemployment rates in the Country.

In fact, there is a saying in Montana, we say 'all hat and no cattle.'

By Executive Order 12175 and the way we think about our tribes and their sovereignty, this is a government-to-government relationship.

I see a systemic failure in my view of the EPA engaging and treating these tribes with the dignity and respect they deserve.

To my knowledge, given the Crow and Midwest utilities, the EPA has completely failed at meaningful consultation with the Crow tribe.

I was struck when Senator Gardner asked question about when the Navajo President was notified.

Let me just say with the six day lag with President Begaye, that was a failure.

if Iran's ultimate goal is to obtain a nuclear weapon, the deal reached by the Obama administration sets Iran on course to do so. From the time this deal is agreed to, Iran has 10 years to fill their coffers with tens of billions of…

I wish to thank the Senator. I appreciate that. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mrs. Capito). The Senator from Montana.

as I like to say, there are only two types of companies: those that have been hacked and those that know they have been hacked. This was recently seen at JPMorgan Chase. Last summer the company suffered a cyber attack that involved the…

I would like to shift gears for a moment and share some comments about President Obama's news that he made yesterday with the EPA. Yesterday, President Obama and the ``Employment Prevention'' Agency, the EPA, continued to wage their war on…

I thank the Senator from Oklahoma for having this colloquy today because I do believe we are at a crossroads. With this vote we will have in about 20 minutes, we have a choice set before us, one that each one of us must make as a Senator…

I come to the floor today to share some remarks on what is going on with Planned Parenthood. Prior to sharing those remarks, I wish to inform my colleagues that we received some tragic news that has come out of Montana. I literally just…

I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call be rescinded. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. Tragedy on Crow Reservation

I am a huge proponent of Wi-Fi, the Internet of Things, and other potential unlicensed apps. But I also want to ensure that Montanans can continue to receive our local news, our local programs over the air.

I want to talk a little bit about rural America.

Millennials, they want to be able to have a fly rod in one hand and their mobile device in the other, and they don't want to trade off quality of life for quality of career.

today I rise to speak about the Nation's cyber security. Prior to being elected to the Senate, I spent nearly 12 years working at a cloud computing company. This is a company we started from virtually nothing. We took the company public…

I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call be rescinded. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. Cyber Security
