Jeanne Shaheen

I think we are probably looking at another CR for the remainder of this year.

I was very pleased to see that get done and very proud to report that those handguns are going to be made in New Hampshire by Sig Sauer.

The military piece is the easy piece. It is the diplomatic and what comes next that is the hard piece.

I want to hear from you that you will be an advocate for the budget of the Small Business Administration, because what we saw in the last Republican administration is that they cut SBA's budget by about 32 percent.

I am disturbed by some of the President-elect's comments that are different than those positions you have enunciated here about the institutions that the United States helped create after World War II.

I think sometimes the idea of access to family planning services is conflated with abortion, and it is a very different issue.

I was--I appreciated your comments about disagreeing with the idea of a registry for any particular group in the United States, for Muslims.

I have to say that unfortunately, as strong as I believe our ambassador to the U.N. can be, the President's words are often taken with much more weight.

He recently called it in a tweet just a club for people to get together and talk and have a good time.

Today about 60 percent of all maternal deaths take place in humanitarian situations like refugee camps or areas that have been affected by conflict.

He was amazingly nonchalant about the future of the European Union and the Transatlantic Alliance.

I for one believe that the science shows that fossil fuels have contributed dramatically to climate change.

I would argue that we have a lot of scientific evidence.

This pipeline would undermine sanctions on Russia, increase Russia's political leverage over Eastern Europe.

Will you support continuing that program to ensure that those people who have been properly vetted, who helped our men and women, are able to come to this country when their lives are threatened in Afghanistan?

I certainly agree with that, which is very different, I think, than a ban on an entire religion, people of that religion.

I think it stands in stark contrast to what we heard from President-elect Trump today, who announced that he is not going to divest himself of his vast business interests around the world.

The overwhelming majority of them are dedicated. They are dedicated to this country.

Will you pledge to continue to prioritize quality family planning and reproductive health services for women worldwide, and ensure that resources and access to these programs are not conflated with support for abortion?

I certainly agree with that. And does that mean that you will commit to continuing those programs, if you are confirmed as Secretary of State?

I was very disturbed when there was a request from the Trump transition team to find out who the employees within the State Department have been who have worked on gender equity programs.

I think you can probably understand, Mr. Tillerson, why some of us are very concerned about the President-elect's statements praising Vladimir Putin's leadership.

In 2008, you notably said that there is no respect for the rule of law in Russia today.

I think a picture is always worth a thousand words, and when you put a face to Sergei Magnitsky, as this poster does, and see two other victims of the authoritarian regime in Russia, I think it speaks to what is happening there and how we…

I agree with your opening statement that the United States has an important role to play in the world, not just standing up for our interests and values but also for democracy, for press freedom, for human rights, for rule of law.
