Well, how can we improve that? You indicated that there are some improvements that could be made over at OPIC.

Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman, and I sure appreciate our experts coming to share their insights with us today.

So how do we work together to help take advantage of the changing economics for renewable energy?

I think that point is accurate. In April, when I was meeting with India's power minister... that is an accurate representation of our energy history.

the value of these resources is so high, they drive an enormous amount of corruption.

I would encourage you to be careful with charges of hypocrisy. It is kind of a below-the-belt shot.

there are few things we do here in the Senate that matter more or have longer lasting impacts on our Nation than confirming individuals to lifetime appointments in district courts, circuit courts, and the Supreme Court. It is the Senate's…

As you ponder our energy choices, how do you weigh into your decisions the observable impacts of carbon pollution?

Wind can also produce very low-cost energy, but you tend to see a lot more solar. Why is that?

So one of the things I have often heard as a critique of distributed solar is that you cannot essentially enable there to be manufacturing activities.

I was really struck by just the transition in this single year between April and June driven, I think, by decisions in India related to that dropping price.

Thank you very much. All of you brought different perspectives to bear and expertise. Much appreciated.

One of the things that I have heard often is simply the access to lower interest financing as a significant hurdle.

We have had serious conversations about the potential of using a nuclear weapon in--as a first-use weapon both in Vietnam and in Korea.

We have not been checking and balancing the executive branch for 60-some odd years, maybe longer.

It has not generally been the retention of the potential for first use as it has been assured destruction.

I am not ready to concede that the line should be wiped out with no geographic limits, no time limits, no style of force limits.

I think it is going to be a very robust conversation about taxes. When we look into the eyes of working Americans, I hope my Republican colleagues are ready to answer this question, and that is, Why do they, the Republican Party, want to…

I ask unanimous consent that my intern, Sarah Finley, be granted privileges of the floor for the remainder of the day. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.

I appreciate the comments of my colleague and the opportunity for us to work together to help shine a light on this moment of great atrocities in the world. A great deal of what we are calling for is for America to do more to shine a light…

I thank my colleague from Indiana for joining me on the floor today to raise awareness of the ethnic cleansing that has been occurring on the other side of our planet, ethnic cleansing by the Burmese military against the Rohingya Muslim…

I am coming to the floor to talk about the challenge we have with forest fires that have been raging in the West, in Montana and Idaho and Washington and Oregon and California, and periodically we have devastating fires in Colorado, New…

The thing that confused me about the Senator's commentary is that the Senator referred to people, through this regulation, being forced into court, but in reality, they would still have a choice of arbitration or court, as opposed to being…

I am profoundly disappointed in what happened today. I think part of leadership is putting yourself in other people's shoes.

I could possibly clarify that. My understanding is that, currently, when you have an arbitration clause, you have one option, and that is to go into arbitration.
