John Thune: “Sequestration's indiscriminate cuts are costing us very dearly.”

Both pieces of legislation strike at the very heart of issues that the American people care deeply about, passionately about, and we'll see if the Democrats are willing to take yes for an answer.

There’s voter fatigue with high gas prices, and high diesel prices in my part of the world.

It’s a great message. I like the message. But it shouldn’t be paid for with taxpayer dollars.

Odds are we plan on being here next week," said Thune.
