The objective then, as with the bill before this committee, was to entrust sufficient resources and decisions into hands closer to the people in need.

I was the floor manager of that bill and worked closely with Representative Clay Shaw in the House and numerous governors to craft this reform.

The President said he's not going to sign continuing payments. The House Republican leaders and speaker have said they're not going to pass a bill.

I don't think any senator right now having watching Donald Trump for six or seven months expects Donald Trump to have their back if they cross him.

The President doesn't want to move on to tax reform. He wants to get a bill done.

I mean there would be pounded away how bad Donald Trump is doing, how he can't leave the country. And nobody is talking about any of that.

I think it's very, very important that this administration realize that they've got some damage done here, and if there is anything else to be disclosed, it's the time.

I don't really take that seriously what Russians say to each other and what's leaked from those conversations.

If you think what's happened over the past 10 days is really been good for the country, do you that think this type of indiscriminant leaking of classified information... is good for the country, then you probably are not in my mind a…

If the president goes to the Middle East and he does what Professor Dershowitz talked about, you know, put some tangible agreements on the table...

America voted for this problem.

I think the message to your point why are they leaking this out now? Why are there recriminations now? I think it's a very clear signal to the Freedom Caucus that we got your back in the Senate.

I think we need to get our manufacturing back here. I think the president is the right guy at the right time for America and I think this is a distraction that hurts his ability to get that done.

I think they've dramatically improved this bill.

This is the most important speech because this shows I'm a serious person in the White House, I have serious proposals, I have ideas, here's where I want to take America.

If Chuck Schumer decides and if the Democrats decide, OK, we're going to stand and we're going to try to fight, we're going to filibuster this, then what they've done is force the Republicans into the nuclear option.

I think this is a terrific pick and he is very clear, he wrote a treat us on it. That's why a lot of the pro-life people are very happy.

This was a great chess move. They made a great entry chess move here. They have set themselves up not only to get a great justice in Neil Gorsuch.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm not play in this game if you guys want to play. President can still defend himself, he doesn't need Rick Santorum to defend him.

And the White House is the last place for on the job training.

Senator Santorum makes the point that he is sympathetic to child savings accounts because he sees them as part of an ownership society.

This is a direct assault on us and our family to hand over to the state the ability to make medical determinations and see what is in the best interests of the child and not look at the wonderful gift that every child is.

This is a direct assault on us and our family to hand over to the state the ability to make medical determinations and see what is in the best interest of the child and not look at the wonderful gift that every child is.

This is a direct assault on us and our family. To hand over to the state the ability to make medical determinations and see what is in the best interest of the child and not look at the wonderful gift that every child is.

The problem is, there's a provision in this international law, which we would be adopting if the Senate ratifies this, that puts the state, the state in the position of determining what is in the best interest of a disabled child.
