John Cornyn

Whether or not you actually own the venue, you do have effective influence and maybe in some cases outright control over what the venue charges in terms of the ticket price.

I think what we have heard today does cry out for some response by Congress, but candidly, I am not sure that the antitrust laws are the best tool in our toolbox.

John Cornyn said, quote, the world has changed considerably in the last couple of weeks, meaning a lot of Republicans blame Trump specifically for what happened in the midterm elections.

Well, like Senator Graham, I’m proudly pro-life, but I think after the Supreme Court has ruled in the Dobbs case, that this issue is best decided on a state-by-state basis and that decision is not going to be made by federal legislators…

I know the Presidential Records Act makes those not his records. I think what Merrick Garland decided to do was heavy-handed and frankly naive. What he`s done now is create a precedent that the Department of Justice can execute a search…

I came to the floor to talk about the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act. But first, let me just express my gratitude to the Senator from West Virginia for his longtime commitment to come up with a bipartisan solution. This is not easy. And…

We know this is an issue that divides much of the country depending on where you live, and maybe even divides people living in the same household. But I think we have found some areas where there`s space for compromise.

So, let`s take our country back, starting with Congress in November. Thank you. God bless you! And may God continue to bless you and the state of Texas.

I've never been given into mobs and I'm not starting today.

I will not under any circumstance, support new restrictions for law abiding gun. That will always be my red flag.

We caught and kept President Biden's gun branded wishlist off the table.

May God continue to bless our great state of Texas.

It was time to fish or cut bait. Decisions had to be made.

To be clear, we agreed on a press statement, a set of principles that was very important and hard fought.

Senator Cornyn said he understands their concerns, says his goal is saving lives, but added nobody knows exactly what we're going to do including me.

Not going to happen.

Unfortunately, hiding policies from congressional oversight is a pattern when it comes to President Biden and his White House and the climate czars.

That regulation was designed to override elected State governments and decimate livelihoods and entire communities.

I would like to hear whether you, or if so, how your 2035 climate targets are achievable without crushing the energy sector and the whole U.S. economy in jobs.

We know they don't play by the same rules that we do and they don't follow the law. They shamelessly steal secrets and they coerce American investors into joint ventures, steal their IP and their know-how.

I think it provides us an opportunity in the conference committee that a number of us are on to try to include this in that final conference report.

Businesses will not protect national security. That is not their job. That's the government's responsibility.

I for one, and I bet I'm not alone, don't want to see those companies using some of these taxpayer dollars that we're trying to provide to incentivize re-shoring of semiconductor manufacturing to enhance their investments in the PRC.

This is exactly the sort of hearing we need to be having, an open session so that not just the Committee can hear, but the American people can hear and be better informed about the competition that we're having with the PRC and the Chinese…

I don't think it's really an appropriate topic for Congress to be passing a national law.
