I ask unanimous consent that the Judiciary Committee be discharged from further consideration of and the Senate now proceed to the consideration of S. Res. 174. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. The clerk will…

You helped me save my time by making that same point, but it was a very important discussion.

We cannot have it both ways. We cannot on the one hand ask you to make people feel good about another priority that we want when we have not sufficiently resourced the priorities that we have already set.

I think that if we are going to get to a point to where we are producing more resources to people who desperately need it, then we have to be open to a different way of addressing the needs.

The question that I have is, is the Marine Corps the Nation can afford the best possible Marine Corps to protect our troops and to project lethality on the battlefield?

What you need is the certainty out of this institution that what we say this year is what we mean next year.

I used to run a supply chain optimization practice at PriceWaterhouse, and the inherent inefficiencies in here...

I have not seen anything in intelligence circles that says their policies, their approach is driven by climate change.

I think we need leadership from the Administration to focus our efforts so that we can get to bipartisan reforms.

I look forward to discussing with Senator Brown to identify the best path forward.

I rise to discuss the new FDA Commissioner, or, more specifically, the role that the agency must play in tackling one of the biggest health crises of our day, one that I have personal experience with. Unless we act decisively, this crisis…

I like the idea of the military aptitude test, moving that forward to the point of registration.

I completely agree that one of the most enjoyable parts is when we finish the selection and put forth nominations for the academies we have a celebration and an awards ceremony down in the state.

I'm glad I think there's consensus among the four of us who are here about the childcare component.

That information--and I have gone way over, but that information is critically important because it is instructive to the extent that the federal government gets involved in funding or promoting any programs that you are going to be--you…

I do believe that going to a worker-centric versus workplace-centric model where things can move around makes a lot of sense.

We need to look for ways to be more productive with the funding that we are producing.

It is the head-meets-the-heart policy. When I was Speaker of the House in North Carolina, I said that the policies I like the most were the things that have an enormous impact on an individual and their families and saved a lot of money.

Let us increase the funding. Let us look at the pipeline for drugs.
