Frank Lautenberg: “Thank you, Madam Chairman.”

I am deeply concerned that recent cuts to the IRS budget are jeopardizing its ability to carry out this vital mission.

Immigration is not a zero sum game. If we attract the best talent in the world to come to America, they will create jobs, not displace them.

I am concerned that with our budget difficulties we will continue to see declining budgets for Defense Nuclear Non-Proliferation activities in favor of Weapons Activities.

I want to hear feelings of improvement, of moving forward.
