A similar proposal was included in the discussion draft of the Lower Health Care Costs Act, released by Senators Lamar Alexander and Patty Murray.

The Great American Outdoors Act is going to reduce the $12 billion maintenance shortfall in our parks by about half.

That doesn't sound like a very Republican argument to me. I mean, our position, my position, Republicans believe that states are in charge of elections. And Texas is a big state, but I don't know exactly why it has a right to tell four other states how to run their elections. So, I'm having a hard time figuring out the basis for that lawsuit.

Senator Lamar Alexander... said today that he believes President Trump should congratulate Joe Biden as President-elect once the electoral college steps forward.

He told me that he had substantial reason to believe the governor was about to release one or more persons from the state prisons who were the targets of the United States investigation into payoffs to release people from our prisons. He asked me to take office in order to prevent that.

These are not very happy days for Tennessee. This is not a happy day for me.

I made a plea for bipartisan cooperation as my closing speech in the U.S. Senate today.

I think you've got to take office early in order to stop what's going on.

The transition to Biden should begin.

If there is any chance whatsoever that Joe Biden will be the next president, and it looks like he has a very good chance, the Trump administration should provide the Biden team with all the transition materials, resources, and meetings necessary to ensure a smooth transition so that both sides are ready on day one. That especially should be true, for example, on vaccine distribution.

You're saying that, based on the preliminary indications from your serological testing and studies, that as many as 90 percent of Americans are still -- still haven't had the virus yet?
