What he's trying to do is to use the Postal Service as his own vehicle to stop people from voting. But, also, the Postal Service not only ensures that we exercise our rights to vote and our constitutional rights to vote.

This is a constitutional issue that he's trying to violate in terms of constitutional rights.

We're going to pass the Delivering for America Act. And we're going to put $25 billion -- at least the House is going to do this, which the Board of Governors -- the poster Board of Governors asked for, Trump appointees, $25 billion for…

I think, tonight, we're going to hear Senator Harris really not only define herself to people, tell us who she is.

Kamala Harris is so prepared to be our vice president. I've known her for years and years. I supported her when she ran for president. And who else is better prepared to be Joe Biden's partner than Kamala Harris.

in reserving the right to object, Senator Scott's proposed amendment, to be clear, would create a carve-out for people based on the languages they speak. Now, unless their language skills are somehow part of the analysis determining…

we are living in some really unprecedented times. The economic impact of this global pandemic on our Nation, our people, and our communities has been nothing short of devastating. Within weeks of the start of this pandemic, we went from…

I go back to the question I asked rhetorically a moment ago. What is it about the speakers of these languages that are mentioned in the amendment offered by my friend and distinguished colleague, the junior Senator from Florida--that is…

reserving the right to object, I want to thank and appreciate the work done by my friend, my distinguished colleague, the senior Senator from Illinois. Senator Durbin and I have worked on many issues. We spent a lot of time working on this…

when Americans see a ``Made in the U.S.A.'' label on a product, it is a source of great pride, and justifiably so. It represents the American virtues of entrepreneurialism and industriousness. It also alludes to the fact that, as…

I am always happy to discuss any counterproposal. If the Senator would make one, I would love to see it. It is not fair to say I don't care about those kids because I am unwilling to create additional green cards. If the Senator wants to…

the protection for the children is now found in the proposal, in the amendment at the desk--the one that was just objected to by my friend and colleague, the Senator from Illinois. I would ask my colleague rhetorically or directly, as he…

we have the opportunity right here to pass this right now. This bill fixes this problem. As to the suggestion that we can't do any of this without increasing the total number of green cards--this is a poison pill. My friend and colleague…

Rhetorically or otherwise, the Senator is welcome to answer. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Illinois.

I ask unanimous consent that the motion to reconsider be considered made and laid upon the table. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Virginia. ____________________

Reserving the right to object, for well over 8 months, my friend and distinguished colleague, the senior Senator from Illinois, has been publicly blocking legislation protecting the children of immigrant workers. Now there is something…

I know of no further debate on the bill. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there further debate? Hearing none, the question is, Shall the bill pass? The bill (S. 4065) was passed, as follows S. 4065 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of…

I could not agree more. We should do this. I could not agree more that we need to eliminate the outdated, outmoded Elvis Presley era immigration provision that discriminates against individuals on the basis of their country of origin, on…

reserving the right to object, it should have been brought forward. We would have loved to have considered it. I haven't seen it yet. My staff saw it for the first time earlier today. I would love to have a look at it. This is something…

reserving the right to object, look, the hold harmless issue was taken care of with the 3- to 9-year transition. That is why we made the 3- to 9-year transition, was to take care of the hold harmless provision. Now, if the Senator wants to…

reserving the right to object, I am a little flabbergasted at this moment, when I find myself in a rare circumstance of disagreeing with literally every word uttered by my colleague, the senior Senator from Illinois. He is my friend. He…

I withdraw my objection. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The objection is withdrawn.

all I asked in my counter was that we remove the words ``especially the President of the United States.'' Why? Because it is different than the entire approach taken by the resolution. As long as we are calling each other out on casting…

the resolution was designed to be unifying. It avoided controversial subjects. All it asks of us is basic dignity and respect. As long as we are on the topic of rule XIX, it is unbecoming to accuse a colleague of using language that is…

what is happening here? This is the U.S. Senate. Just so everyone is clear about the bat guano-inspired insanity we just witnessed, I just proposed a nonbinding resolution condemning mob violence, and Senate Democrats objected. I don't…
