John Hoeven

I would ask my colleague from Oregon--and I did have him in North Dakota. We had a great time, and I appreciate his coming out to see the energy we produce in our great State. I would ask the gentleman for his help on carbon capture…

I also want to add Terry Van Doren to that list, who is here this morning on the floor. He worked tirelessly and stood firm in the negotiations. So, Terry, thank you to you as well. And, again, the final word, though, has to go--I think…

I would like to thank the Senator from Iowa. Again, she directly brings that experience from the farm, growing up in agriculture. Somebody else who is here represents Mississippi, so you can see we are going from North Dakota to…

I would like to thank the good Senator from Nebraska and turn to the Senator from Iowa, who has also been an absolute champion on behalf of agriculture. Thanks so much for being here. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Hoeven). The Senator from…

Mr. Chief Justice, I am sending a question to the desk for myself, Senator Boozman, Senator Wicker, and Senator Capito. The CHIEF JUSTICE. The question for counsel for the President from Senators Hoeven, Boozman, Wicker, and Capito: House…

If there is no further business to come before the Senate, I ask unanimous consent that it stand adjourned under the previous order. There being no objection, the Senate, at 6:19 p.m., adjourned until Tuesday, October 22, 2019, at 10 a.m.

I want to thank the Senator from Iowa and turn to somebody who, although he is very young, has been working very hard for agriculture for a very long time, and that is the Senator from Kansas, who also happens to be our Ag Committee…

I want to thank the Senator from Ohio. I introduced him as the Senator from Ohio because that is what he is right now, but I could have also said that he is the former USTR, U.S. Trade Ambassador, so I guess I could have said Ambassador…

I would like to thank the Senator from Arkansas for his words and also his leadership in agriculture. Now I turn to the Senator from Ohio, who I think is going to touch on some of the aspects that are beneficial for the manufacturing…

I would like to thank the Senator from Iowa not only for his work on agriculture but also his leadership on the Finance Committee, which is so important to advancing USMCA. We will now go from the Midwest to the South. This is an agreement…

I would like to thank the Senator from Indiana. Like our State, it is a major ag State. It also has manufacturing and many other areas. The USMCA is very important to the State of Indiana. I thank the good Senator for his comments today. I…

Today, the Committee will hold its last oversight hearing this Congress on the very important topic of missing and murdered individuals in Indian Country.

America benefits every day from our farmers and ranchers, with the highest-quality, lowest-cost food supply in the world.

I am a true believer in all-of-the-above energy development.

Baseload is crucially, vitally important to this country. It really is a national security issue.

I would ask for your commitment to help us in that effort and also ask a little bit about how you might approach it?

It strikes me that those two bills show the incredible diversity we have in Indian Country, right?

It is critical that we support the sovereignty of tribal nations.

Chairman Hoeven, Ranking Member Udall and members of the Committee, thank you for this opportunity to testify today.

Are you willing to come out and visit rural areas like areas in my State to get a firsthand knowledge of what the situation is there and listen to the people?

He was one of the Committee's longest-serving members, serving twice as Chairman of this Committee.

Throughout his service in Congress, Senator McCain was a real champion for Indian Country.

He was truly a colleague and a friend.

We must do more to support Native youth and ensure they have access to the resources they need.

Be careful here, because I talked directly to the Secretary, and he came back to me with a positive answer, which I appreciate your looking at this, but that basis was overcome by all this work, and that is disrupted by the tariffs, so it…
