Political Quotes

On the recordDecember 12, 2018
First, Mr. President, let me add my words of fond farewell to the senior Senator of Utah. Back in the good old days, we worked on a whole lot of things together, when the place was a little less partisan--immigration, patents, and so many other things. He was a fine legislator and a fine craftsman. I wish him and his entire large, beautiful family the best. I also note that Leader McConnell talked about the good bipartisan work we have created in the farm bill, something good for his State and something he has cared about for a long time. I hope the leader--and I will talk more about this later--will use the same bipartisan spirit and help us to deal with the appropriations bills that are still awaiting our agreement. ____________________
