on November 3, 2018, this country lost a true American hero: MAJ Brent Taylor of Ogden, UT, who gave the ultimate sacrifice while deployed in Afghanistan. As North Ogden's mayor, Major Taylor died as he lived: going above and beyond the…

this is the most despicable policy this administration and any administration that I have seen in a long time.

this is really something that it is another stain on this country.

With so many minority students being affected by this lack of accountability and transparency and rip-offs, I mean, come on.

This is taxpayer money. I mean, come on. I had a business for 11 years, and if I didn't comply with my requirements, I would get penalized.

shouldn't they be given some kind of reparations and compensation or assistance to get through these difficult times?

The 90-10 rule bars for-profit colleges from receiving more than 90 percent of their revenues from student loans and grants.

this coming Friday, tens of thousands of Americans will take to the snowy streets of Washington, DC, to exercise their fundamental rights on behalf of millions of others who cannot. They will come from every State in the Union, including…

in reserving the right to object, Tribal recognition is a very serious matter. It is not one that should be undertaken lightly. Given the sacred nature of Tribal recognition and the significant impact it has both on the Tribe in question…

Let me thank the gentlewoman for yielding and for her leadership on so many issues. Mr. Speaker, I rise this evening in opposition to this bill. It really is a hateful and un-American demand for $5 billion to build President Trump's border…

Yes, I object. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Utah's objection is heard. The Senator from Utah.

all I am asking is for the language that I have asked for--two words, the words ``for Utah''--to be added to this legislation. I am asking to be treated on equal footing as the language proposed by the Senator from Colorado, the Senator…
