I urge President Biden and Secretary Mayorkas to immediately put a stop to these expulsions and to end this Title 42 policy at our Southern border, that we cannot continue these hateful and xenophobic Trump policies that disregard our…

The budget committee reached a landmark of agreement on a $3.5 trillion budget resolution.

If there is no further business to come before the Senate, I ask unanimous consent that it stand adjourned under the previous order. There being no objection, the Senate, at 6:31 p.m., adjourned until Tuesday, September 14, 2021, at 10…

Democrats have come up with a new combined compromise bill on voting rights.

The Republican led war on Democracy has only worsened in the last few weeks. Most notably, the governor of Texas recently signed into law a vile new voter suppression bill that ranks as one of the most draconian undemocratic and living…

The good news is it for a relatively small amount of money, we can upgrade the mesonet and get much better weather forecasting than we have had in the past.

Senator Manchin has been having discussions with our Republican colleagues to try and garner support for this important legislation.

In our caucus, there are some in my caucus who believe $3.5 trillion is too much. There are some in my caucus who believe it’s too little. In reconciliation, we’re going to all come together to get something big done. And second, it’s our…

Global warming is upon us and it`s going to get worse and worse and worse unless we do something about it. And that`s why it`s so imperative to pass the two bills. The infrastructure bill and the budget reconciliation bill.

Let me be clear, Republicans refusing to support anything on voting rights is not an excuse for Democrats to do nothing.

Look, there was some in my caucus who believe it’s too much there are some in my caucus who believe it’s too little. I can tell you this in reconciliation, one. We are going to all come together to get something done. And to it we’ll have…

Failure is not an option. Voting is too sacred, and everything will be on the table to get it done.

Republicans refusing to support anything on voting rights is not an excuse for Democrats to do nothing.

We have made progress and we are showing very clearly to every one of our 50 senators that Republicans won`t join us.

I must do a couple of procedural things. But do my colleagues from Georgia and California want to speak on voting rights? No. Thank you. I am sure the Senators from New Jersey and Connecticut are very grateful as well. I will be brief…

Now, Mr. President, we have come to an agreement here. I am going to read it in a minute, and I just want to say that we are going to try to have everyone sit in their seat. There are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 amendments. If we all sit…

Once again, congratulations to all of those who worked so hard on this very significant and very important bill, and now we proceed to the second track. ____________________

I can tell you this, in reconciliation; one, we are going to all come together to get something done. And two, it will have every part of the Biden plan in a big, bold, robust way.

It is not a question. I would just ask the Senator to yield for 30 seconds so I might inform the Members. I have been getting questions. After we finish on the bipartisan infrastructure bill, we will move immediately to proceed to the…

Just a word, I was proud to be a cosponsor, along with Senator Gillibrand, of this legislation. The Harlem Hellfighters are an example of bravery and courage under fire, and even though this regiment was consigned to racial segregation…

We have managed to steer two trains at the same time. There have been some bumps. There have been some delays. But the Senate is on track to finish both tracks. The Democratic budget will be the most significant legislation for American…

If there is no further business to come before the Senate, I ask unanimous consent that it stand adjourned under the previous order. There being no objection, the Senate, at 10:21 p.m., adjourned until Monday, August 9, 2021, at 12 noon.

Well, this afternoon we pick up where we left off last night. The Senate has voted to advance the bipartisan infrastructure bill and bring debate on the substitute amendment to an end. I would repeat that Democrats are ready and willing to…

There's a very good day, he said, calling it a very good thing for the country.
