We will be doing as you call it, human infrastructure, call it whatever you want, we’ll be doing major investments in housing.

We will move forward on all kinds of children’s issues and healthcare and family issues.

I want voters in Macon, Georgia in July of 2022, and to say, you know, I voted for Biden and Harris. I voted for Warnock and Ossoff and my life got better.

Every Republican voted against the child tax credit, for instance, and every Democrat voted for it. Hold us to that.

I mean, last night, in a party line vote, Republicans have decided to oppose everything.

We will be doing major investments in housing. We will lengthen the life -- we will extend the child tax credits.

It`s up to us to deliver. It`s up to you and all of us to show people who delivered and that every Republican voted against the child tax credit, for instance, and every Democrat voted for it.

I expect we get the 50 Democrats on board as we did last night.

-Madam President, I am pleased to see language in the State broadband grant program prioritizing employers with ``a demonstrated record of and plans to be in compliance with Federal labor and employment laws.'' It is unfortunately common…

I rise to urge my colleagues to support the budget resolution immediately after the infrastructure vote tomorrow. I particularly am glad to see the Presiding Officer in the Chair today. Earlier I spoke on this floor about the…

I ask unanimous consent that Ben Lockshin, the detailee in the Banking and Housing Committee, be granted floor privileges for the remainder of the session. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. ____________________

I first thank Senator Sanders for his passionate support for housing. He understands, having traveled the country and connected with so many people, that there is almost nothing more important--maybe nothing more important to people's…

I rise with--I don't know if I ever actually said this on the Senate floor--I rise with a heavy heart because of the death earlier today of a longtime friend, Rich Trumka, who was the longtime President of the National AFL-CIO. I call him…

The Ohioans I talk to are exhausted by this kind of division and distraction.

I wish my Republican colleagues would put as much effort into bringing down the cost of housing for families as they do into this political theatre.

If all politics is local, I am as local as it gets. This takes compromise and again it takes delivering results not insults.

I'm disappointed the Ranking Member continues to act otherwise.

It`s a blow to progressives with Turner endorsed by Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, falling short of the moderate Brown who is backed by Hillary Clinton and several members of the Congressional Black Caucus including Jim…

We know that story is all too common.

They remember after the Great Recession, when we called it a 'recovery' around here, workers did not get much of a raise and entire neighborhoods and towns were left behind.

The COVID-19 pandemic has claimed the lives of more than 600,000 Americans. We have made great progress getting shots in arms...

I will be relentlessly advocating for investments in this fund through the rest of my tenure.

And we need to make sure those gains end up in the pockets of working families--the people who made this progress possible.

Because of the work we've done with the American Rescue Plan, putting money in people's pockets and making progress against this pandemic, our economy is starting to recover, adding more jobs every month.

We need strong financial watchdogs that hold financial institutions accountable, and ensure that these institutions serve their customers and communities, instead of lining their own pockets.
