These camps can be breeding grounds for radicalism.

today I wish to support the nomination of John Michael Vazquez, whom the President nominated for a lifetime appointment as a United States district judge for the district of New Jersey. I thank Majority Leader McConnell and Minority Leader…

I thank my colleague, and Senator Shaheen as well, for emphasizing what I think needs to be emphasized, which is that we have in the IAEA an ability to do the most intrusive inspections ever before seen on the planet Earth. That agency--an…

I completely agree. I appreciate that.

So, this is not something that should wait until after a Presidential election or until the next Congress? This is something that really needs to be done right now?

I do think that the Post Office is antiquated, but not in the ways that have been discussed.

I have introduced legislation, the Postal Innovation Act, which stresses the urgent need for the U.S. Postal Service just to modernize.

Body-gripping traps are not just cruel, but they are absolutely indiscriminate.

And I appreciate that, and just to highlight the urgency here--

I would question whether they were effective--and thank you very much--and we are spending hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars of taxpayer money on things like Voice of America and not on the programs that you have such a…

We are not taking this nearly as seriously as we did----

Thank you very much, Chairman. I want to apologize, Mr. Darling, at the outset. I have a Homeland Security Committee meeting that I need to go to after this. But I am very excited about your nomination.

I found myself having to explain that that was not our stance and actually get very strong in reasserting or reaffirming the pluralistic society in which we live.

Vilifying all of Islam and Muslims of course will hurt us.

we have a region of the globe that is a Millennial region, and we need to attune sort of the Baby Boomer and Gen X efforts to really focus in on language that they understand and that they are engaging in.

Chairman Inhofe, I want to thank you for being gracious this morning with the conflict that Senator Fischer and I have.

I will say that again--completes its study quickly so that the rule can be fully enforced.

I want to specifically thank him for introducing Inhofe Amendment 1, which will take at least a step in the right direction.

first, I echo the concerns of my colleagues here. It was extremely valuable to be able to travel with Senators Heitkamp, Kaine, and Coons as part of the eight-Member delegation to the IAEA, and meet with the individuals in charge of the…

I was with the Senator when you heard from Prime Minister Netanyahu about the priorities and the partnership between our two nations, including support for the Iron Dome and David's Sling. What was also critical, was our cooperation to…

today I wish to support the nomination of Judge Luis F. Restrepo, the President's nominee for appointment on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Filling a vacancy on the third circuit is important to New Jerseyans. Because…
