Harry Reid

Senator Conrad, because of his tenure of service, had the choice to take a number of different committees. He decided to stay as chairman of the Budget Committee. When I talked to him this morning, I said: I am elated. He is really a…

I appreciate everyone's cooperation. This has been a long hard slog to get where we are. I appreciate Senator Kyl, Senator Menendez, and many others who have worked on this matter tirelessly for many years. I am grateful it is…

I appreciate everyone's cooperation. This is the SGR extension for 30 days to allow us to spend more time on this and make sure the doctors are able to be compensated. These Medicare patients are extremely important, as are the doctors.

I cannot get out of my mind the little girl who was so sick from eating spinach that was tainted. She has been hurt so badly for the rest of her life. She was held back in school. Her body is not what it should be. Her growth has been…

People in Nevada know me. From the street to the ring to the Senate chambers, I have never had to prove my manhood to anyone.

Everything she has said in that ad is false. It's not true. I have never voted for tax breaks -- breaks for people who are here that are illegal.

Don't get sick after June, because by June we're out of contract health care money.

It's pretty clear that if you are a Native American, one of the First Americans who welcomed everyone who showed up later.

We cannot allow that to continue.

Contract Health Services is inadequately funded by virtue of not having sufficient money in the budget.

We're enormously proud of that legislation, as well.

This is about real people; this is kids dying; it's elders dying; it's about real people.

That, in my judgment is shameful.

I know that there is substantial use of contract health funds here in this area of Nevada.

I think there are a lot of very wonderful people working for the Indian Health Service.

Even if that were not the case, there are other problems that I think lead all of us to understand this system doesn't work very well.

This resolution concerns a civil action filed against the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives seeking to have the Federal courts order Congress to pass legislation enacting the plaintiff's…

I ask, through the Chair, are you telling the American people that the Secretary of Defense--a man chosen by the President of the United States, not only by this President but the last President-- is in favor of our passing the DREAM Act…

I ask my friend, through the Chair, is it not also true that under the terms of the DREAM Act, no one becomes a legal citizen, that they get a green card?
