There`s no reason not to be optimistic but certainly will be helpful to see some progress between now and tomorrow, Wednesday so. We are in the process of allowing our law enforcement groups to engage and to communicate back. We`re making…
I will say this, that Chairman Casey and I probably disagree on a lot of issues, but the way that he handles himself makes me so proud to be the Ranking Member on this Committee.
I will say that when I was selling the long-term care policies--and I do think we should spend some time at some point talking about the importance of helping those who can afford the long-term care policies...
I have spent several years in the industry selling long-term care policies, so this issue for me is something that I have personally thought about for 20-plus years.
I know that you recognize that by the year 2030, our small State will have 1.8 million South Carolinians who are probably going to need a higher level of care than they currently do right now.
In South Carolina, and I think around the country, the truth of the matter is that as you wrestle with the streams of resources that may or may not be available, that is one convoluted system itself.

Knowledge is power. We simply need to also make sure that we have a strong marketing network to help people understand what is even available in some instances.
There is no doubt that a Harris poll suggests that 8 out of 10 Americans really like, love telemedicine, virtual medicine.
Mr. Chairman, I am just going to propose that Ms. Blunt identified you, sir. That is a rabbit hole that we need to go down at some point.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. You seem to be handling the technical issues seamlessly.
I was incredibly disappointed to see that the Executive order was revoked by the Biden administration, signaling a return to a lengthy, overly detailed permitting and environmental review process for new infrastructure projects.
Tim Scott has been very open that it’s June or bust when it comes to whether or not there could be some sort of deal on that.
I do not understand why the President has not gone to the border and talked to Border Patrol.
It appears to me it is a crisis. I know the White House does not want to call it that, but it sure appears to be.
What part of the law was discriminatory? What part of the law restricted--if you are actually increasing the number of days of early voting...
Tim Scott told the 'PBS NewsHour' that congressional negotiators have just three weeks to deliver a deal on the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.
