Will you commit to continue working with your colleagues and with Congress to solve this problem so that our rural consumers can have that in a timely way?

I want to thank you for your response and for your acknowledgement that this is a problem and it's not yet fixed.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

American families should be able to decide which fuel they put into their vehicles.

I thank you for convening today's legislative hearing to discuss bipartisan legislation that I introduced with Senators Donnelly and Grassley.

We all wanted to come together and work across the aisle to advance environmentally friendly fuel options for American families.

I suggest the absence of a quorum. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Sullivan). The clerk will call the roll. The bill clerk proceeded to call the roll. Mr. McCONNELL. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call be…

I rise to discuss problems that affect almost every aspect of our everyday life no matter who we are, where we live, our level of income, or any other distinction that might be possible to make. These problems have to do with America's…

When we look across the list on NNSA's construction projects, it looks like the plutonium project at Los Alamos is the only one that Congress appropriates at the sub-project level.

We have to look to the future on what is going to keep us safe, correct?

Isn't it true that, across-the-board, the size, composition, posture, and the policies relating to our nuclear forces have been updated continuously by each administration?

For your personal opinion, do you believe we are on the right path with regards to geopolitical changes that we are seeing in the world right now?

Thank you again for your attendance.

Like many of my colleagues, I believe in the importance of funding our nation's infrastructure.

time is money when it comes to infrastructure. And if we are going to invest in the future, we have to be able to stretch taxpayer dollars and make them really count.

I rise today to remember another of Nebraska's fallen heroes--those young men and women who have given their lives defending our freedom in Iraq and Afghanistan. They all have different stories. Their families all have the same request…

If I could, I would like to begin with you, Mayor Gill. You discussed the AIP funding challenges that small, rural communities face in dropping enplanements because of unreliable air service.

I rise today in support of the nomination of Judge Neil Gorsuch to be our next U.S. Supreme Court Justice. Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution entrusts Members of the Senate with a responsibility vital to our democracy: providing…

I rise this afternoon to discuss a true American value: equal pay for equal work. This is something that we all believe in, and tomorrow is National Equal Pay Day. It is a meaningful reminder that equal pay remains among the challenges…

That is what we are trying to address in the bill to make sure those people who have low or fixed incomes are not hurt disproportionately by the legislation we are putting forward and that we are still able to make sure that those water…

We all want clean water. Our bill helps us work toward that important goal without unnecessarily burdening families along the way.

We all want clean and safe drinking water but an expensive, one size fits all approach handed down from Washington does not work.

I believe we echo the sentiment of airport operators across the country when I say that we urge careful, cautious and deliberate integration of UAS into our national air space.

This behavior has to change. It has gone on for too long, and we need to see those changes.

the system itself presents a risk to most of our facilities in Europe, and we believe that the Russians have deliberately deployed it in order to pose a threat to NATO and the facilities within the NATO area of responsibility.
